SCIENCE EDUCATION HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ERA-01-70 Developing a STE(A)M roadmap for Science Education in Horizon Europe
Scope (1/2)
Rationale and objectives
• COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated importance of Europe’s
scientists to keep society safe and healthy
• Europe needs more scientists and Europe needs a science literate
society
• To increase uptake in science careers and feed talent pipeline, a
plan of action is needed to encourage more interest in STE(A)M for
young and old alike, plus focus to increase female participation
• Artistic approaches to STEM involving creative thinking and applied
arts (the “A” in STEAM) could prove useful
HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ERA-01-70
Scope (2/2)
Develop strategies to increase uptake of science careers to
Potential feed the talent pipeline.

Take into account the needs of industry in education
Develop strategies to convince students and citizens of
importance of policies like Green Deal and Digitisation and
the opportunities that exist within these areas.
Strategies for increased female participation
HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ERA-01-70Expected outcome
Projects are expected to contribute to:
Better knowledge on policy deficiencies and better
understanding of needs Indicative budget: EUR 5.00
million
Identify synergies between second and third level
education, and between education and business
Expected EU contribution per
Contributions to future Policy actions project: between EUR 1.50 and
1.75 million

second and third level education and between education
and business
Convince students and citizens about the opportunities that
exist within policy areas such as the Green Deal,
Digitisation and Health
HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ERA-01-70SCIENCE EDUCATION HORIZON-WIDERA-2022-ERA-01-70 Open schooling for science education and a learning continuum for all
Scope (1/2)
Rationale and objectives
• Open Schooling for Science Education and a learning continuum for all
• Proposed action targets creation of new partnerships in local communities
to foster improved science education for citizens and to contribute to a
learning continuum for all
• Policies should support students, teachers, parents and the wider
community to improve access to and provide everyone with the
opportunities to pursue excellence in learning
• Students and citizens fully equipped to engage in scientific discourse and
facilitate further study in science education
• Action aims to support range of activities based on collaboration at local
level between formal, non-formal and informal science education
providers, enterprises and civil society to integrate the concept of open
schooling, at all educational levels, in science education
HORIZON-WIDERA-2022-ERA-01-70Scope (2/2)
Potential Foster improved science education for all citizens and contribute
to a learning continuum for all
activities
Work together on real-life challenges and innovations within local
communities to engage them in teaching and learning and to
promote science education as part of local community
development.
Collaboration at local level between formal, non-formal and
informal science education providers, enterprises and civil
society
Possible strategies for increased female participation
HORIZON-WIDERA-2022-ERA-01-70Expected outcome
Projects are expected to contribute to:
● New partnerships to foster networking, sharing and applying STEM
research findings amongst teachers, researchers and professionals
across different enterprises eg Startups, SMEs, entrepreneurs;
Indicative budget: EUR
● Engage learners in meaningful real-life problem-solving situations, within 5.50 million
