Vision Stand and Celebration
STEM SISTERS AMBASSADOR PROGRAM

Vision Stand or Celebration workshop intends to provide outstanding and motivated female international students studying STEM subjects at institutions in Victoria to improve their professional skills and feel more connected while studying and living in Victoria. STEM Sisters ambassadors will learn from industry leaders from the five monthly workshop and give back to the community through campus events and outreach programme, allowing them to feel appreciated and secure about pursuing studies and careers in STEM disciplines in Victoria.
On March 10th, 2022, we had the formal launch and first ‘Vision Stand/Celebration’ workshop for our Ambassador Program. The evening began with a celebration of our ambassadors for completing the four workshops in the Ambassador Program. Following that, we greeted and presented our stem ambassadors, whose profiles may be seen on our website, to receive their certificates. Video message from Hon. Jaala Pulford open the celebration and our four presenters, Amanda Caples, Caroline Hartnett, Anne Maria Hede and Madhu Bhaskaran, were introduced as the workshop progressed. Our ambassadors, speakers and the audience were given the opportunity to enjoy the celebration and build the networking in the evening. Finally, Shaz Sivanesan led our workshop activity, which got everyone engaged until the end of the workshop.
