Internship programme for young women in STEM at the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine

At the end of last year, UNDP in Ukraine with the financial support of the Government of Sweden launched a pilot internship programme for young women in STEM at the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.

Seven finalists were selected from among more than 200 applicants. They all are students or recent graduates in STEM majors: IT, business analytics, software engineering, physics and astronomy, systems analysis, and computer science.

For two months, the young women had the opportunity to work together with Ukraine's Ministry of Digital Transformation team on projects in the field of state digitalization – and the results of their work were presented at the closing ceremony of the pilot internship programme in February 2023.

The internship programme was implemented in the framework of the DIA Support project, which is implemented by the UNDP in Ukraine with funding from Sweden.
