Meet the Scientist 2025

Meet the Scientists 2025, in South Australia, brought together science, community, and culture in a vibrant showcase of diversity in STEM. Held during Science Alive! at the Adelaide Showground, the event invited families and students to engage directly with scientists from underrepresented backgrounds through hands-on demonstrations, interactive exhibits, and storytelling that made science accessible and exciting.

The event highlighted the importance of visibility and representation in shaping the future of STEM. With resources like the Future Me career books and real-life role models on hand, young attendees were encouraged to imagine themselves in science and tech careers. More than just an outreach event, Meet the Scientists 2025 served as a celebration of identity, inclusion, and the power of possibility in STEM.
