In this biennium, the Advocacy Committee’s mission was to raise awareness amongst young girls and women of the importance of technology in an ever-increasing technology-based global economy and to encourage them to explore higher education and career in technology so as not to be left behind in the economy of the 21st century, in particular, when statistics generally suggested that more males pursue technology-related education and careers than females. To accomplish this mission, the Committee organized a forum titled “Women-in-Technology: Education and Career Opportunities”. The Forum was held on 13 April 2019 at the Centaline Club in Causeway Bay.
