Short description of the project

CreaSTEAM project aims to provide an actualized map of the resources focused on the reduction of the diversity gap using STEAM approaches, and how to select

from these resources better solutions to create a framework to implement STEAM-Labs into secondary schools. The STEAM-Labs, as a main innovation of the project, merge the solutions that we can find in FAB-Labs, MEDIA-Labs, and USER-Labs, and our approach is focused on the creation of good practices in these spaces in order to promote diversity in STEAM, where diversity also covers gender equity, and social inclusion for promotion of STEAM vocations. CreaSTEAM project will map initiatives related to promoting STEAM and best practices among children and young people in order to address diversity-gap. It is expected to create a complete

guide and mapping of resources focused on the different lines of STEAM with hard focus on diversity-gap reduction, and to help educational institutions to build a new concept of specific laboratory, the STEAM-Lan, through the creation of a guide.
