Girls in STEM: The Real Barriers: Unscripted with Khethiwe

In the continued spirit of the International Day of Women and Girls in STEM, we are reflecting on powerful moments from the JA Africa Company of the Year (COY) competition 2025, where conversations with JA Africa Board members explored the future of youth skills, women’s empowerment, and opportunity across the continent. In this conversation, Khethiwe Nkuna, CEO of SkillQuest, shares honest insights on girls’ and women’s participation in STEM, why many girls are still left out, what barriers persist, and the practical steps we must take to change this reality. Her message is clear: create avenues for girls to participate in STEM early. This is exactly what we are working to achieve through 10MAG. Across our community, so many girls are already taking bold steps to pursue traditionally male-dominated fields, empowered by mentorship, learning opportunities, and a network that believes in their potential. Now, it’s time to scale this impact. Through stronger mentorship, expanded access to education, and collective support, we can open even more doors for the next generation. Become a MAGnifier!
