Stem conference for regional girls 2026
After the huge success of our 2025 pilot event, OzGREEN would love to bring the STEM Conference for Regional Girls to the Mid North Coast again in 2026!
This event will see 138 female and non-binary students from regional public schools with very limited STEM opportunities come together for an inspiring day of hands-on learning, career discovery and connection with trailblazing women in STEM.
We are currently seeking partners to help bring this incredible, life-changing event to life.

our impact

why our mission?
-
Strong relationships within communities foster trust, collaboration, and a shared sense of purpose. When people feel connected to one another, they are more likely to work together to solve local challenges, care for each other, and take collective action.
-
Regenerative goes beyond sustainability. Sustainable aims to maintain the status quo, but many systems - ecological, social, and economic - are already in crisis. Regeneration goes further: it’s about restoring, renewing and healing - replenishing what’s been lost and creating the conditions for life to thrive.
-
A resilient community is one where people are connected, supported, and empowered. Our programs and events foster relationships, leadership, community capacity and shared purpose, which are all key ingredients for bouncing back from adversity.
-
OzGREEN focuses on regional communities because they are uniquely important, deeply impacted, and often overlooked. Regional communities often have less access to infrastructure, education, and leadership opportunities. We work to help fill that gap, ensuring regional communities and local leaders have the skills and support they need.
