The project at the American Association for the Advancement of Science builds on the successful outcomes of the Mentoring Women in International Research Collaborations (MWIRC) in STEM initiative. Women faculty in science, technology, enginnering and mathematics (STEM) fields at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and other Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) are supported to create and sustain new research networks at the international level, thus enabling them to learn about developing and establishing critical research collaborations. Twelve women faculty will travel to one of the three upcoming Gender Summits, to be held in South Korea and Germany in 2015 and in Mexico in 2016. Attendance at the summits and follow-up activities will allow faculty to expand their networks, perspectives, and collaborations in the STEM disciplines which will enrich their research capacity and that of their institutions. The participants will be able to benefit from an already existing gender-concerned community. This project will create a strong synergy and engagement from a variety of entities and partners, will help STEM faculty better understand international research priorities, resources for developing international research collaborations, and guidelines for U.S. STEM researchers traveling and conducting research abroad. The project has co-funding support from the Global Venture Fund in the Office of International Science and Engineering.

美国科学促进会的这个项目建立在STEM倡议中国际研究合作中的指导妇女（MWIRC）的成功成果的基础上。 妇女教师在科学，技术，enginnering和数学（STEM）领域在历史上黑人学院和大学（HBCUs）和其他少数民族服务机构（MSIs）的支持，以创建和维持新的研究网络在国际一级，从而使他们能够了解发展和建立关键的研究合作。12名女教师将前往参加即将举行的三次性别峰会之一，这三次峰会将于2015年在韩国和德国以及2016年在墨西哥举行。 参加峰会和后续活动将使教师能够扩大他们的网络，观点和STEM学科的合作，这将丰富他们的研究能力和他们的机构。 参与者将能够从现有的关注性别问题的社区中受益。该项目将从各种实体和合作伙伴中产生强大的协同作用和参与，将帮助STEM教师更好地了解国际研究重点，发展国际研究合作的资源以及美国STEM研究人员在国外旅行和开展研究的指导方针。该项目得到了国际科学和工程办公室全球风险基金的共同资助。
