Territorios STEM (or STEAM in Chile and Peru, where the A stands for “Arts” and incorporates a cultural aspect) bring stakeholders from local education systems together with representatives of civil society, science, business and the state. In doing so, they help to form local alliances with a view to advancing STEM education at all levels within a defined geographic area. This means that schools, society and the local administration join forces to improve the quality of life in the region. This approach aims to tackle global challenges in regional and local contexts. Part of this work involves promoting scientific and technical education, as well as skills to help people prosper in a modern, digitalized world.
