The team will be at FIRST Global, an annual Olympic-style international robotics competition that brings together youth from all around the world to share their passion for STEM.  The competition will be held at the Singapore EXPO and will highlight the role of hydrogen in sustainable energy and the reduced carbon future. This year the Ghanaian team is composed of 5 students from the Achimota Senior High School located in Accra, Ghana who have been mentored by STEMbees, a pioneering organization  promoting STEM education among African women.
