PROJECT

OUR GOAL

Sail into STEAM is a project that aims to revolutionize STEAM education in the region by proposing a sports-themed course as an educational platform. This innovative approach has the potential to encourage interdisciplinary learning that combines physical activity with intellectual exploration.


The main goal of the project is to create a new sailing course through which the sailing sport will prove to be a perfect platform for acquiring informal knowledge in the STEAM field and will serve as a valuable link between standard education in schools and a physically active lifestyle.
