At this UN session, South Africa presented a number of initiatives that are undertaken through the Departments of Basic Education, Higher Education, and Science and Technology, to increase the number of women in these sectors. One of the projects that was well received at the UN, and is particularly supported by the United Nations Children's Fund, Unicef, was Techno Girls. Through this project, girls from Grade 9 to 12 are recruited and exposed to various science and technology opportunities that exist particularly in the private sector, including mining. This project is being piloted in four provinces. We have a commitment from Unicef to roll out this project throughout the provinces.
