, including engineering. However, changing cultural norms is a complex andchallenging process that requires sustained effort and collaboration among various stakeholders.For example, policymakers can collaborate with community leaders, religious figures, and otherinfluencers to encourage inclusive cultural norms and promote positive change from within. Inaddition, addressing the structural barriers that prevent women from accessing education andemployment opportunities in STEM fields is crucial. This includes implementing mentorshipprograms, networking opportunities, and creating a supportive environment fostering diversity andinclusion. Gender parity in STEM benefits women and contributes to the growth and development ofthe economy and

Although students reported using libraries for group study only“sometimes,” using libraries as collaborative spaces is also essential to fostering community.There is prime opportunity to develop and promote tailored resources to students within thespace, and to gather feedback on new initiatives. Being valued as a safe, functional space isparamount to supporting student success. Reflecting student identities in classrooms is a process. Libraries can also partner withdepartment administration and faculty to update and change static curricular content. Theincreasing use of Open Educational Resources (OER) in engineering is an opportunity for facultyto critically examine course materials

To support the Mentors more inthese efforts, the plan is to create seminars for the Mentors to cover topics like sciencecommunication across audiences, teaching in an inclusive manner, and collaborating with adultsand youth.As of this writing, LEL’s 2022 – 2023 program year is enjoying a new resurgence of afterschoolsites investing in engineering education.
