We partner with surveying and geospatial companies to improve these statistics
She Maps is a proud Australian Social Enterprise with an international footprint. We connect and collaborate with schools, academia, and industry to teach powerful, real world learning in the classroom with modern STEM technologies. We focus on the surveying and geospatial industry as we believe that spatial skills will underpin the growth of companies and our communities in a data analytics hungry fifth industrial revolution.
As a certified Social Enterprise, we are deeply invested in eliminating bias and embracing diversity. We do this by building teacher and student capabilities and confidence with STEM, as well as engaging, educating, and empowering diverse and underrepresented sectors of our community.
There is a lack of funding in schools for STEM
Many schools simply don’t have the funds to access professional learning, teaching materials, and the classroom equipment required to incorporate modern STEM initiatives, such as drone and geospatial education programs into their schools.
When talking to schools, many of them have cited a lack of funding available for them to access quality drone and geospatial education. In fact in 2021, a social campaign we ran identified over 500 Australian schools that viewed an Inspiring Australia STEM grant as the only opportunity for them to fund an immersive experience with modern technologies. This grant was oversubscribed and many schools missed out.
We know schools are eager to get their drone programs up and running, they simply can’t afford it.
Can you help support a local school?


Why sponsor a school?
Schools will be able to continue to deliver enriched learning opportunities that stimulate children' curiosity, kindle passions, and give school learning purpose and value.
It raises students' awareness of and interest in a variety of new and developing occupations, such as geospatial professions and other STEM-related careers.
It develops students' 'future of work' capacities as well as 21st-century skills that are applicable to present and future occupations.
It increases teacher confidence, capability, and knowledge in order to promote teaching and learning innovations, resulting in improved student participation in STEM topics.

Sponsor our Competition
The ‘How Cool is Your School?’ Competition is loved by teachers and students the world over. This competition teaches students to calculate the percentage of green shade available at their school by creating a map that meets cartographic (mapping) conventions. The maps the students create are then entered into the competition where individual and whole school prizes can be won.
She Maps is always looking for organisations that would like to help support this competition. Prizes might range in size, and could be as simple as spreading the word about our competition via your network.

Provide case studies & data
We are always looking for case studies and real world stories to incorporate into our teaching resources. If you have an interesting project that you or your organisation has worked on, and the data is publicly available, then our teachers and students would love them


Join our career poster series
We would love to feature any outstanding drone or geospatial experts in our series of career posters, used to inspire students to pursue a geospatial career.
We’re particularly interested in career stories from women, culturally diverse backgrounds and representatives from the LGBTQI communities.


Gift a book set &
coding game
Pippa and Dronie is a beautifully illustrated book for young readers aged 5 to 9, celebrating diversity in STEM.
The book features six real women doing amazing work with drones. It’s guaranteed to capture the attention of students as they learn how these amazing role models use drones to take photographs, gather data and solve some of the world challenges.
Book set includes: Illustrated books, lesson plans, block coding app, web-based game, image mat, Dronie plushie, and free printables.
