NOVA YORK, 25 de janeiro de 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A AFS tem o orgulho de anunciar a nova AFS Global STEM Changemakers Initiative, financiada pela BP. Essa nova iniciativa visa oferecer a 5.000 jovens em todo o mundo experiências de aprendizado imersivas por meio de STEM (do acrônimo em inglês para Ciência, Tecnologia, Engenharia e Matemática), competência global e programas de intercâmbio intercultural focados em sustentabilidade. A iniciativa abrangerá os próximos cinco anos (2022-2026) e é administrada pelos programas interculturais da AFS, uma organização internacional sem fins lucrativos de educação, com financiamento da BP, uma empresa global de energia integrada.

Oferecendo aos jovens as ferramentas para ajudar a construir um futuro mais sustentável 

Por meio de experiências de aprendizado imersivas, a AFS Global STEM Changemakers Initiative equipará diversos jovens com competências técnicas e STEM críticas necessárias (incluindo exposição a engenharia, digital, ciência de dados e consciência STEM mais ampla), combinadas com pensamento de design e competência global, incluindo pensamento crítico, conscientização intercultural e trabalho em equipe, para ajudar os acadêmicos a entender e se preparar para ajudar a transição do mundo para um futuro mais sustentável.

O programa também foi desenvolvido para capacitar populações sub-representadas, especialmente mulheres jovens, com orientações para a educação STEM, liderança e impacto social.

Nos próximos cinco anos, a AFS planeja que jovens acadêmicos selecionados possam participar de um dos três programas distintos:

  • AFS Global STEM Academies, que combinam aprendizado virtual e presencial e reúnem jovens diversificados com idades entre 15 e 17,5 anos de todo o mundo em coortes globais. As academias presenciais de 2022 estão programadas para serem realizadas no Brasil, China, Índia, EUA e Bélgica/Reino Unido, onde os acadêmicos colaborarão em estudos de caso do mundo real em cada mercado.
  • AFS Global STEM Accelerators, que são oficinas interativas virtuais para meninas em todo o mundo com idades entre 15 e 17,5 anos, com foco na sustentabilidade e no impacto social positivo, capacitando as meninas a se tornarem agentes de mudança em suas comunidades.
  • AFS Global STEM Innovators, para jovens, com idade entre 14 e 16 anos, que começa com um currículo virtual sobre competências globais e culminam em um workshop presencial de dois dias, com foco no desenvolvimento sustentável e no impacto local. As oficinas de 2022 serão realizadas em Perth, na Austrália; no Cairo, no Egito e em Jacarta, na Indonésia.

Após a conclusão do programa, os bolsistas serão convidados a participar de uma comunidade de ex-alunos que oferecerá diversas oportunidades de mentoria, sessões de desenvolvimento de habilidades, painéis de discussão e outras oportunidades de desenvolvimento. Os estudantes também terão a oportunidade de serem convidados a participar da AFS Youth Assembly, uma reunião global de jovens que defende ativamente os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável das Nações Unidas.

Capacitando os jovens a se tornarem agentes de mudança por meio da STEM 

A AFS traz décadas de experiência em intercâmbio educacional orientado por impacto e pelo poder de uma rede global. "Habilidades como comunicação multicultural, empatia e resolução de conflitos são essenciais para o nosso mundo. Educar mais jovens para se tornarem cidadãos globais é crucial se quisermos criar um futuro mais sustentável. Temos o prazer de ampliar nossa parceria com a BP e avançar nosso compromisso compartilhado com a educação mais equitativa", disse Daniel Obst, presidente e CEO da AFS Intercultural Programs.

A BP apoia iniciativas como essa para ajudar a construir os talentos STEM que o mundo precisa para criar soluções sustentáveis e melhorar a diversidade de talentos em STEM.

As inscrições para os programas AFS Global STEM Academies serão abertas em janeiro de 2022, seguidas pela inscrição para os programas Global STEM Innovators e Global STEM Accelerators. Saiba mais sobre a iniciativa, os requisitos e as datas dos programas em afs.org/global-stem.
