This Podcast was started with the aim to Educate, Raise awareness, Demystify and Change Perception and make it more accessible and inclusive to all and as some would say ‘normalise’ it.

• Showcase the importance of STEM and its benefits.

• The impact of STEM education on society, what STEM means in the global context and how it influences the development of our society

This another STEM Positive Disruptor: MIA Conversation with special guest, Soji Apampa - Founder of the Integrity Organisation Ltd. (Gte.), Nigeria.

The topic of our conversation was Ethics, as we know with emerging technology and the need for solutions to be ethical driven, this is an important topic for us, also for our STEM world to be truly diverse, inclusive and accessible, it is a topic that we cannot ignore.

Soji defines Ethics as a set of moral rules that guides our behaviour in the market place, the constraints we have to deal with, and that being ethical is deliberate and he provides practical solutions that can help us be the difference and make the difference in our own space.

This is the STEM Positive Disruptor with another MIA Conversation with my special guest, Siew Kien Mah, Dean, Faculty of Engineering and Computing at First City University College, Malaysia. She is an educator and STEM Advocate, very passionate about getting more young people, especially females to study STEM subjects.

Siew addresses the issues of STEM education facing a great challenge as students are no longer interested in taking on STEM subjects as they perceive it as been difficult and does not pay well, what initiatives are been done in Malaysia to encourage the uptake of STEM and provides practical solutions, such as collaboration of STEM advocates globally to share ideas that are working, etc., the need to teach, promote and apply STEM in a creative way that connects and engages with young people and much more besides.
