Girl Engineer continues to advance opportunities for girls to engage in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) through practical learning and industry exposure.
On 5 November 2026, the organisation facilitated an educational visit to the Blantyre West Substation of the Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi (ESCOM), providing participating girls with first-hand exposure to electricity infrastructure, engineering operations and career opportunities within the energy sector.
Hosted by the ESCOM, the visit enabled the girls to interact with technical professionals, gain insights into substation operations and connect classroom-based knowledge with real-world engineering applications.
Access to such experiences is essential in broadening girls' aspirations, strengthening their confidence and addressing barriers that limit female participation in technical and engineering professions.
Through strategic learning opportunities, mentorship and practical STEM engagement, Girl Engineer remains committed to nurturing a generation of girls equipped to contribute to innovation, sustainable development and Malawi's technological advancement.
A Girl, A Chance, A Future.
