Key dates to celebrate with Google activities

Fill your programme plan with Google activities in 2025

10 February 2025

We’re working with Google, to help inspire the next generation of girls in STEM and empower future female leadersin tech and engineering 

Nearly 30% of girls and young women told us they would like to develop skills and learn more about tech 

We also know that 31% aged 11-21, believe that a better understanding of privacy settings would help them feel safer and 33% would like more guidance on where and how to report content online. 

That’s why together with Google, we’re supporting girls to break down barriers in technology. And providing them with the skills, confidence and opportunities to thrive in the digital world safely.  

Have you seen our co-created digital discovery series of activities? They give girls from all sections the opportunity to learn new skills. Whether they’re exploring tech through coding, debugging and finding out how chatbots and algorithms work. Or, learning how to be safer online. With our newest set of UMAs, they can even discover how artificial intelligence works.  

There’s plenty of STEM and related awareness days, weeks and months throughout 2025. These activities would be a perfect way to celebrate them! Although you can complete them whenever is suited to your unit, take a look below for some key dates.  

If you’re feeling inspired download the unit meeting activities (UMAs) from our online shop, for free.
