The aim of the STREAM IT Horizon Europe project coordinated by HÉTFA is to reduce persistent gender inequalities in education, research, and innovation within the science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) fields through its activities. As part of the project, the partner organizations will launch online networking groups called National Inspiration Hubs in 13 partner countries. The Hungarian Inspiration Hub, organised by HÉTFA and the Association of Hungarian Women in Science, aims to bring together educators and community stakeholders who are committed to supporting gender equality in the STEAM sector.
The STREAM IT National Inspiration Hubs are intended to involve teachers and communities teaching STEAM subjects or running STEAM-related programmes, with the aim of capacity building. We will organize activities and programs for Hub members that provide opportunities to share and exchange expertise, experiences, and lessons learned, as well as to showcase potentially transferable good practices. The activities organized for the community will primarily focus on promoting STEAM methodologies and addressing gender issues within the field of education.
As part of the Inspiration Hub, we will organize webinars aimed at promoting collaboration and knowledge exchange among STEAM teachers and communities. The online community will operate on the platform of Basecamp.
In order to organize webinars that effectively support Hungarian teachers in learning about STEAM methods and in addressing gender equality issues, we’ve created a survey. If you are an active teacher in the STEAM field in Hungary, we kindly ask you to take a few minutes to complete our survey. During the survey, you will also have the opportunity to express your intention to join the Inspiration Hub.
The Hungarian survey is available here.
