Dear members,

We’re starting the search for our next 60 Superstars of STEM! We’ll be taking applications from this Wednesday, 15 August 2018. As a valued member of Science & Technology Australia, we’re particularly keen that your members and staff are aware of the opportunity – that’s why I’m writing to give you a few days’ advance notice.

Please identify and encourage articulate and passionate women to apply: we want to make sure as many STEM disciplines as possible are represented on the program.

Each of the participants will be equipped with the skills, contacts and opportunities to become confident public spokespeople for their work, their discipline, and their sector. They will meet decision makers at all levels of government, media, business and academia, and we will provide them with opportunities to connect with thousands of students across Australia.

But first, we need your help to get the most passionate and articulate women in STEM to apply. We have crafted some sample tweets below, and invite you to download and share our Superstars of STEM banners<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/lAKYCP7yOZtMkWW5H12X5G?domain=scienceandtechnologyaustralia.us9.list-manage.com> from this Wednesday:
