TechWomen supports the United States’ global commitment toward advancing the rights and participation of women and girls around the world by enabling them to reach their full potential in the tech industry.<br />Launched in 2011, TechWomen is an initiative of the <a href="https://eca.state.gov/about-bureau" target="_blank" title="Partners">U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA)</a> and is managed by the <a href="http://www.iie.org/" target="_blank">Institute of International Education</a> (IIE).<br /><h2>How We Do It</h2>TechWomen brings emerging women leaders in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) from Africa, Central and South Asia, and the Middle East together with their professional counterparts in the United States for a mentorship and exchange program. TechWomen provides participants access to networks, resources and knowledge to empower them to reach their full potential.<br />During the five-week program, participants engage in project-based mentorships at leading companies in the San Francisco Bay Area, participate in <a href="https://www.techwomen.org/program/professional-development">professional development</a> workshops and networking events, and travel to Washington, DC. for targeted meetings and special events to conclude the program.<br />Over the past seven years, more than 600 women from Algeria, Cameroon, Egypt, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Kenya, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Palestinian Territories, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Tunisia, Uzbekistan, Yemen and Zimbabwe have participated in TechWomen.<br /><h2>Mentoring Across the World</h2>The TechWomen experience doesn’t end in California or Washington, DC. After the program, Emerging Leaders and mentors have the opportunity to reconnect during delegation trips to program countries in Africa, South and Central Asia and the <a href="https://optdolari.blogspot.com/2019/12/us-government-techwomen-program-2020.html">U.S Government TechWomen Program 2020 for Women in STEM</a> <a href="https://jobsintern.blogspot.com/2019/12/us-government-techwomen-program-2020.html">U.S Government TechWomen Program 2020 for Women in STEM</a>
