Digital Storytelling STEM Challenge 2026
Storytelling is an important skill for any STEM & STEAM career – from creating social media posts to showcasing projects to clients to securing funding for your research.
If you want to improve your skills, this event is for you!
At this hack, you will be exploring digital storytelling through games, audio production, or digital journalism, all centred on important women in STEAM and their discoveries, inventions & work. You’ll be able to bring your ideas to life using tech tools like Scratch, Twinery, and Framer and then showcase your design for a chance to win exclusive tech prizes.

What’s in it for you?
Get hands-on, creative experience with industry-standard design and AI tools.

Network with role models and young women/ non-binary young people on similar journeys to yours.
You will receive a specially-selected goodybag and, if you win, exclusive tech prizes!
