“The World Needs More Female Engineers” Last week, we took a break from the Friday deadline crunch to host a group of female high school students from Nepal. The visit was well-organized by two of our summer interns, Z and Josie. Katereh (the K in SK) shared her story of how the company started before the group split up to learn the basics of what we design as civil engineers. The brightness and curiosity of the girls was inspiring to all of us! These girls were competitively selected as some of the brightest in their country through the On-Demand Youth Leadership Program (ODYLP): Nepal – STEM. The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) sponsors this initiative to bring sixteen young participants (ages 15-18) and two adult mentors from the country of Nepal for a three-week U.S.-based exchange focused on promoting female youth engagement in STEM and youth leadership.

Recently, I had the distinct pleasure of collaborating with Sunitha on a profoundly enriching cross-cultural initiative. Using the power of digital platforms, we orchestrated a virtual meeting for our Pakistani and Indian students through Zoom. This wasn't just any conversation. It was an enlightening discourse delving deep into the intricacies of beliefs, values, and actions, all within the framework of peace and mutual understanding. Such endeavors underline what makes the field of education so invigorating and rewarding. We're not merely imparting knowledge; we're bridging divides and fostering connections that transcend geographical boundaries and historical differences. It is experiences like these that reinforce my conviction about the transformative power of education. In a world that is often fractured by misunderstandings and misgivings, it's heartening to see young minds engage in peaceful exchanges, seeking common ground and shared aspirations. To me, this is the zenith of teaching - the opportunity to mold not just well-informed individuals but globally aware and compassionate citizens. It's a testament to the limitless horizons that education can unveil, and the myriad ways it can weave together the rich tapestry of diverse human experiences. #EducationalDiplomacy #PeaceThroughDialogue

The educational landscape in India is currently facing a pressing challenge, marked by the unfortunate reality that millions of children lack access to quality education. Despite notable strides in increasing enrollment, the education system grapples with persistent issues surrounding educational quality. Low learning outcomes, a scarcity of trained educators, subpar infrastructure, and governance shortcomings are prominent concerns that need to be addressed. It is our firm belief that a solution to these multifaceted challenges lies in cultivating a dedicated cohort of leaders, much like yourself, who are resolute in their commitment to revolutionize education within India. By fostering equitable educational opportunities, we have the potential to positively impact over 1 million underprivileged children across the country. This empowerment can lead them to emerge as not only global citizens but also catalysts for transformative change, ushering in the next generation of scientists, doctors, and world leaders. By joining forces, we can collectively contribute to reshaping the educational landscape and fostering a brighter, more promising future for countless young minds in India. Your dedication has the power to make a lasting impact and pave the way for a more inclusive and prosperous society. You can play a crucial role in this transformative journey by becoming a Bhumi Fellow.
