I’m so proud of the work that Girls Opportunity Alliance is doing to support girls in #STEM around the world. On this International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we’ll be sharing more about the Dhammajarinee Witthaya School, a school for girls who are underserved in Thailand that offers free education, safe housing, and three meals a day. With their support, more than 90% of the students attend university. Support for Dhammajarinee from the Girls Opportunity Alliance has helped the school t

International Day of Women and Girls in Science is February 11, but we’re celebrating incredible DZCA scientists all week long! 🔬✨ Today’s spotlight: Dr. Sushan Han, veterinary pathologist on our Animal Health team. Sushan studies disease, performs necropsies and biopsies, and helps diagnose complex cases-work that directly strengthens conservation for many endangered species. Her message to girls in science: the sky’s the limit. Science needs your curiosity, passion, and fresh ideas. #DenverZo

Today, on International Day of Girls and Women in Science, we celebrate Dr. Jane Goodall, an iconic trailblazer whose research forever changed science 🔍🐵👱‍♀️ Jane's groundbreaking wild chimpanzee study challenged long-held scientific beliefs, including her observations that chimpanzees make tools, form deep social bonds, and experience emotion. At a time when most animal studies were taking place in captivity, Jane became one of the first to study primates in the wild — and at a time when wom

By expanding access to quality education and strengthening pathways into science and innovation, H

February 11 marks the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, but in Pakistan, the gender gap in STEM remains stark. Of all out-of-school children, 57% are girls, and female representation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics at the university level is still limited. Even when women enter STEM, most cluster in medicine and dentistry, with far fewer in core tech and engineering fields. Experts point to social pressure, stereotypes and a persistent “permission culture” as
