Brazil – Women's professional development path
This programme sets out to give impetus to women's careers in technical professions (STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) at various junctures throughout their lives. Although it only began in 2021, 548 women have already benefited from the programme. With nearly 3000 registrations and 13 candidates carefully selected and then coached and mentored by our teams, ENGIE gets a major competitive advantage by investing in talented women of the future.
Peru - BECAS ENGIE : + Mujeres en Energia

ENGIE provides them with financial support and enables them to continue their high-level studies on pathways in STEM subjects. It tracks them until they take on their first job in the energy sector. Either at ENGIE or elsewhere! To date, more than 100 women have benefited from the programme.
Saudi Arabia – Promoting Women in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia’s very first initiative to get young women into technical jobs! This project is aimed at increasing female representation in STEM roles and providing them with increasing levels of managerial responsibility on major projects. And it has been successful from the outset: more than 4000 applications submitted for the 15 women selected. They are now on a three-year training programme, and the next cohorts are in the process of being recruited.
