Only 4 Black students were at the Canada-Wide Science Fair in 2021. Statistically-we'd expect about 32. @CanBlackSci is working for change with Outreach Partner @NRCan & sponsors @NRC_CNRC & @WISEatlantic. Congrats to our 3 CBSN-Youth reps at #CWSF2023: Noah, Joy & Munir!

We are thrilled to announce the remarkable achievements of our CBSN youths at the Canada-Wide Science Fair! 🌟 We couldn't be prouder of Noah, Joy, Munir, and all the CBSN youths who have showcased their immense talent & passion for science. Your achievements have set you apart.

This #IWD and every day, let’s remember that #WomenInScience have revolutionized the 🌎 yet women’s full participation and promotion in some fields remains discouragingly hindered. Through recognition and support, we can change that, and create a system that enables us all.
