Kumasi, Aug. 26, GNA – The Otumfuo Osei Tutu II Charity Foundation has organized a five-day science and mathematics clinic for selected female students in the Ashanti Region.
It brought together 500 participants from 30 senior and junior high schools.
This is part of the drive by the Foundation to help demystify and encourage more female students to pursue academic programmes in the sciences and mathematics.
On hand to assist the students were members from the National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT).
They took them through sessions in mathematics, biology, physics and chemistry.
Dr Thomas Agyarko-Poku, the Executive Director of the Foundation, said one of their major projects under the thematic area of education, was the introduction of science and mathematics clinics for girls in the first and second cycle schools.
He said this follow the low numbers of girl students who are into these academic disciplines.
He urged the participants to work hard to fulfill their dreams to change the world, saying, “we can only benefit as a society if we have more talented, bright and outspoken women scientists, engineers and medical doctors.”
