On the 17th of December, 2016, the lives of 36 Nigerian kids were changed forever. The U.S. based non-profit, STEM4Africa engaged them in a whole day of invigorating learning, where they gained critical skills in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) through conceptual problem solving using nothing more than what they are used to and love; fun LEGO models, to design, build and program robots on the WeDo 2.0 software platform. Twenty years from now, one of these kids may just be the biggest name in the Technology industry, not just in Africa but potentially the entire world; that is one of our goals.

This program was provide at no cost to the students participating (ages 8-11) and will continue in Nigeria while expanding to Kenya in 2017.

Let us know what you think by providing comments and suggestions. Also, if you would like to see this in another African country and are willing to partner/volunteer, don't hesitate to contact us via email.

Thanks,
The STEM4Africa Team!

Check out the video. We did it! STEM4Africa's FREE pilot Robotics Challenge in 2016 was a huge success. In Lagos, Nigeria, we successfully trained 4 teachers as facilitators and 36 primary school students (20 female) on solving scientific and technology problems using robotics design. These kids are the future of their country and learnt concepts such as acceleration, frictional forces, pollination, robust structures etc. using hands on problem solving techniques. We were in awe at the level of talent in these children who embraced the challenge in a fun way and showcased not just their innovation but also their presentation and collaborative skills.

Thanks for all your support.

Next stop 2017- Nigeria & Kenya!
