01.01 Décrivez votre startup en détail

STEM Inclusion Ghana is a foundation which seeks to promote Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics(STEM) education in Ghana and address the urgent need of creating a robust inventory of innovative STEM teaching enhancements and digital content, interactive learning activities, and real-world opportunities and events which are readily accessible to all students and educators (both in and out of school). We give equal STEM education to all students – regardless of their gender, ethnicity, or socio-economic background to create an array of tools and resources to educators, parents, and the community at large to build confidence and competence in STEM skills both inside and outside the classroom, in order to meet this growing demand for STEM literacy among an increasingly diverse population and bridge the gap in the area of STEM.
