Pell Frischmann is excited to be celebrating International Women in Engineering Day 2023 (INWED).
Now in its 10th year, INWED celebrates the amazing work of women engineers around the world and plays a vital role in encouraging more girls and young women to take up engineering careers.
History of INWED
- International Women in Engineering Day began in the UK in 2014 as a national campaign from the Women’s Engineering Society. Since then, INWED has grown, receiving UNESCO patronage in 2016 and going truly global the following year.
- National Women in Engineering Day was launched for the first time in the UK on 23 June 2014 by the Women’s Engineering Society (WES) to celebrate its 95th anniversary.
- In 2017, National Women in Engineering Day became international for the first time due to the interest and enthusiasm developed by the international audience and participants in the previous years. International Women in Engineering Day (INWED) was born to enable the celebration of women in engineering to become global.
