Welcome to the World STEM Network website

A Legacy of Connection. A Global STEM Network.

Every child, every young person, and every citizen, wherever they live, deserves access to STEM learning as a foundation for understanding the world and participating fully in society.

STEM is more than Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics. It empowers people to think critically, solve problems together, and engage with the challenges shaping our shared future. STEM provides essential skills for a better life and for active, informed citizenship.

In an interconnected world, progress demands more international collaboration - not less. More learning across borders. More shared knowledge. Global challenges require collective action.

That is why the World STEM Network connects national and regional STEM ecosystems worldwide, bringing together educators, science centres, youth initiatives, policymakers, and partners to learn from one another and scale what works.

This global network is the legacy project of Beatrice Boots, founder of the EU STEM Coalition. Building on her vision and the success of the EU STEM Coalition, we carry her belief forward: lasting impact is created through connection - linking the world through STEM, for the benefit of all.
