AWIS is a national New Zealand organisation that works to better the position of all women working in the sciences, including those practicing, teaching or supporting science and those studying science at a tertiary level. Formed in 1985, the organisation provides a network for women with an interest in STEM to share experience and skills, allowing them to gain confidence in their role and increase self-knowledge. AWIS’s strategy is focused on reducing bias in the workplace, career development, and ensuring work-life balance for women working in STEM.
