About the project

STEAM education equips students with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in a rapidly changing world and adapt to the future workplace. However, there are significant disparities between Western and Eastern Europe in students’ STEAM performance, and a gender gap can also be recognized. In addition, the significance of education in achieving the SDGs for the future of Europe to establish peace and prosperity for people and the planet has been widely acknowledged. Yet, there is a lack of educational initiatives and resources that can facilitate the successful implementation of the 2030 Agenda in schools.
To this end, the Erasmus+-funded project “STEAMinSDGs” was built to provide teachers with resources to attract, support, and inspire students, especially low-performing ones, regarding the SDGs and their connection to STEAM disciplines, thereby fostering their skills and interest in both fields and encouraging them to become active and responsible citizens.
