To enforce the next generation of engineers, we organize this panel focusing on the following: First, encourage young girls to explore engineering and science. These initiatives help to increase girls' confidence in their abilities to succeed in these fields. Second, implement policies and programs that promote gender equality and support women engineers. Third, highlight the achievements and contributions of women engineers to inspire future generations. Ultimately, by focusing on women in engineering and creating a more inclusive environment, we can ensure that the engineering profession continues to grow and innovate in the years to come.enGender diversityDiversity (politics)Engineering ethicsHumanityWomen in scienceScience and engineeringGender equalityEngineering educationEngineeringPanel discussionPanel: Focus on Women Engineering - Toward the Next Generationarticle
