Research Brief | Evidence-Based Strategies for Attracting and Retaining Girls and Women in STEM 

This research brief includes evidence-based strategies for attracting and retaining girls and women in STEM. It incorporates intersectional approaches to addressing inequalities specific to the experiences of girls and women of color. We feature the perspective of the National Girls Collaborative Project (NGCP), an organization with strong on-the-ground experience implementing some of these strategies. The brief also contains a list of 19 NSF INCLUDES awards and related publications focused on girls and women in STEM.
