Key Priorities & Green Skills Focus

Emphasis is placed on green skills and sustainable technology transfer: resource efficiency, environmental pollution prevention, circular economy, waste reduction, cleaner production, and sustainable food, chemical, and textile products and technologies.

International Science Week “Women in STEM–2027” brings together two signature co-located events tailored for international researchers, professionals, educators, and emerging youth:

1. International Forum: “Empowering Women and Youth through STEM and Green Innovation”

A high-level dialogue for researchers, faculty, industry experts, and policymakers featuring plenary keynotes, thematic panel sessions, mentoring roundtables, and project exhibitions.

Key Thematic Sections:

Women in STEM: Participation, leadership, international mentoring, and sustainable professional networks.
Green Skills and Technologies in Research & Education: Sustainability, environmental security, and modern curricula development.
Circular Economy and Waste Management: Resource recovery and closed-loop solutions across food, chemistry, and energy sectors.
STEM Teaching and Learning: Interdisciplinary approaches, laboratory practices, and project-based educational frameworks.
University–Technicum–Industry Cooperation: Strengthening dual education and structured pathways from training to technical employment.

2. Student Event & Practical Workshops: “Rising STEM Stars–2027”

A dedicated experiential platform where students from technicums, academic lyceums, and secondary schools interact directly with women researchers and global university representatives to develop real-world engineering solutions.

Event Activities & Formats:

Hands-on Laboratory Masterclasses: Interactive experimental demonstrations led by senior scholars and educators.
Student Projects & Poster Session: Presentation of innovative student models, prototypes, and applied solutions.
Inspirational Meetings & Mentoring: Direct career dialogue, scientific guidance, and networking with female science leaders.
Practical Challenges: Solving local environmental and industrial processing problems through team-based innovation.

🍏 Sustainable Food Technologies

Food waste valorisation, energy- and resource-efficient processing methods, advanced food safety testing, and biodegradable packaging solutions.

🧪 Sustainable Chemical Technologies

Green chemistry principles, benign reagents, safe laboratory practices, chemical recycling technologies, and cleaner manufacturing processes.

🧵 Sustainable Textile Technologies

Responsible raw natural fiber utilization, closed-loop water-saving dyeing and finishing, smart textiles, and fabric upcycling practices.

📐 Technical Art & Design

Creative engineering, functional product modeling, rapid prototyping, and architectural/industrial design utilizing recycled and bio-based materials.

Who Can Participate: Researchers, female scientists, early-career academics, university professors, vocational/technicum instructors, school teachers, students of all tiers, and industrial sector delegates.
Working Languages: English, Uzbek, and Russian.
Modes of Contribution: Plenary paper, oral sectional presentation, masterclass demonstration, scientific poster, student project, or general attendee.
