Girls, Science & Mathematics, Prof Karin Therese Howell on #LenyoraWednesday

On the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we speak with Professor Karin-Therese Howell, Executive Director of AIMS South Africa, about why mathematics matters beyond the classroom. She shares how mathematical thinking empowers young people — especially girls — to embrace uncertainty, build confidence, and imagine new possibilities. A conversation about numbers, yes, but also about opportunity, representation, and the next generation of women in science. RISE fm
