Objectives

The “Space Education for All” Working Group (SE4A WG) is aiming to:

i)
enhance STEAM education with effective usage of space education materials,
ii)
provide all people with space education and training opportunities, and
iii)
promote mutual understanding among countries in the region through exchanging experiences, knowledge, and information.

The “Space Education for All” Working Group (SE4A WG) was originally established as the “Space Education and Awareness” Working Group in 2001 and changed its name to “Space Education” Working Group in 2014. This working group offers a forum to exchange information on educational activities and to discuss how to provide space education and training opportunities to all people. Its scope of activities ranges from early childhood education, secondary education, higher education, to adult education in formal and informal manners.
