Description

The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) launched a pioneering mentoring program in 2022 to empower early-career women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) from underrepresented regions, fostering gender equity and capacity building. Indonesia, a committed CTBTO member state, has played a significant role in this initiative by successfully mentoring seven participants over three program cycles. These mentees, hailing from institutions such as BRIN, BMKG, BAPETEN, and Gadjah Mada University, have demonstrated measurable advancements in their technical expertise, leadership skills, and contributions to international collaboration. This paper examines the program’s impact using a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) framework to evaluate mentees’ skill development, professional growth, and broader contributions to Indonesia’s active engagement in CTBTO initiatives. Metrics such as technical certifications, leadership responsibilities, and participation in global scientific networks serve as indicators of success. The findings highlight the program’s effectiveness while identifying areas for future enhancement. By leveraging KPIs, the study provides evidence-based recommendations to optimize mentoring programs, strengthen Indonesia’s leadership in promoting gender equity in STEM, and advance global cooperation in nuclear science. This approach underscores the potential for such initiatives to drive meaningful progress in capacity-building and diversity in STEM fields.
