STEM Conference for Regional Girls 2026
After the huge success of our 2025 pilot event, OzGREEN is elated to be bringing 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 Purpose
To create connected, regenerative and resilient communities.
How We Achieve This
We deliver programs and resources to :
-
Encourage people into STEM
We deliver programs to inspire people into STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) to build strong, future-ready communities.
-
Support wellbeing
We connect people with nature and each other, build confidence, motivation, capacity and disaster preparedness to support wellbeing and resilience.
-
Protect rivers
We empower people to care for rivers through citizen science. We run some of the largest citizen science river health programs in Australia.
-
Plant trees together
We know the positive impact of planting trees together. We coordinate tree planting projects and events to engage communities in revegetating the environment.
-
Reduce waste
We understand the waste issues facing our planet today. We build skills and inspire action towards a circular economy through workshops, in-school programs and education at major events.
Many of our programs take a whole-of-community, inclusive approach.
We also run targeted programs to support people and communities facing specific disadvantage.
Within these targeted programs, our focus areas include:
The future is not a place we are going,
but one we are creating.

Our Impact
OzGREEN projects empower people to take meaningful action for their wellbeing, their community and the environment.
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.
