In a world increasingly shaped by technology, STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) play a central role. To positively shape the evolving changes around us, we trust the STEMplus<\/em><\/a><\/span> approach. It is an interdisciplinary approach that combines specialized knowledge with the competencies of the 21st century. Together with our partners, we implement STEM education projects and networks that give children and young people hands-on experience, promote creative thinking, intercultural understanding, and open new horizons for them. This creates a basis for active participation and individual solutions to global challenges. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
