ISTANBUL<\/span>, July 4, 2022<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ —  Ar\u00e7elik, the global household appliance manufacturer, expanded the coverage of its WE-inTech programme works to ensure gender equality in technology and innovation, and welcomed its first cohort of students to its inaugural WE-inTech programme from Turkey<\/span>, Romania<\/span>, South Africa<\/span> and Pakistan<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Ar\u00e7elik officially welcomed 45 women to a year-long programme to empower and support their career progression in the STEM industry. The programme kicked off with a three-day workshop, focusing on guided coaching to prepare women for a career in various STEM areas, providing access to industry experts for insight and mentorship, and supporting participants’ professional development in technology and innovation. The scheme is being delivered together with Ar\u00e7elik’s subsidiary companies Arctic (Romania<\/span>), Dawlance (Pakistan<\/span>) and Defy (South Africa<\/span>).<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Ar\u00e7elik, along with other Ko\u00e7 Group companies renewed its commitment to gender equality in technology and innovation and announced ambitious goals to increase the number of women working in STEM areas. Ar\u00e7elik has been supporting women’s empowerment in STEM through the ‘We-inTech’ programme, which has been running locally in Turkey<\/span> as ‘You are an Engineer, You are with Us’ since 2019. As part of its Action Coalition commitments, Ar\u00e7elik expanded the programme’s coverage to reach out to young women engineers in Romania<\/span>, Pakistan<\/span> and South Africa<\/span>.  <\/p>\n

Nihat Bay\u0131z, Chief Production & Technology Officer of Ar\u00e7elik, commented: “Ar\u00e7elik is committed to empowering women in technology and innovation. Our We-inTech programme supports women currently pursuing an education in STEM, to not only support the career development but also to ensure their full and effective participation in their related educational background.”<\/p>\n

Additionally, he said: “We share a collective vision to driving real change when it comes to gender equality in the STEM field which is a man-dominated area. It is in service of this vision that we have become a supporter of the Action Coalition platform and committed to advancing gender equality in the fields of technology and innovation, in cooperation with the UN Women’s Generation Equality Forum. We know that we have to offer a programme not only supports their education but opens a field to ensure their career start. Following the positive impact, we decided to expand our 3 years old programme, thus, we aim to reach out to young women engineers globally starting with Romania<\/span>, Pakistan<\/span> and South Africa<\/span>. We believe that our leading brands in these countries will help us to support the career progression of young women in STEM.”<\/p>\n

The WE-inTech programme is aimed at women who are currently in their third or final year of undergraduate studies in STEM areas. The programme structure consists of three full days of workshops, mentoring sessions, and networking events.<\/p>\n

During these three days, attendees met industry experts and researchers from all over the world, as well as teams from Ar\u00e7elik, Arctic, Defy and Dawlance. During the one-year program, participants will also be able to work on ongoing projects, in addition to receiving technical and career development training, mentorship and support within the scope of their mentorship program.<\/p>\n
