Curriculum

Our STREAM-based curricula (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) are designed to be hands-on, culturally grounded, and contextually relevant. We integrate local knowledge, everyday materials, and community experiences to teach foundational concepts in ways that resonate with learners in underserved and off-grid communities. Built collaboratively with educators, engineers, and local leaders, our curricula aim to spark curiosity, promote critical thinking, and empower learners to solve real-world problems using accessible, sustainable methods.
