Consultation with stakeholders

UK-CENA is a community of engineers from different fields who are passionate about seeing the Congolese community, especially women, thrive in careers in science, mathematics, and engineering. In our workshops, we have asked participants for feedback on what they have learned and what they would like to see in future sessions. The findings have suggested that there is a need for a community like UK-CENA to bridge the gap between school, higher education, and the Congolese community. We have encouraged participants to come up with ideas to improve future sessions, such as mock tests with our engineers or CV building sessions. We hope that by doing this, we can positively impact and add value to our community.
