STEAM Azerbaijan Festival
Since 2021, the International STEAM Azerbaijan Festival has been held annually with the support of the Ministry of Science and Education of the Republic of Azerbaijan and organized by the "STEAM Azerbaijan" project. The purpose of the festival is to promote STEAM-based education, develop 21st-century skills among learners, identify creative students, and encourage the implementation of STEAM-based approaches to environmental sustainability, efficient use of water resources, and the development of innovative solutions and projects for alternative energy sources. The STEAM Azerbaijan Festival was first organized on December 9-10, 2021. The STEAM education method is based on the integration of five main disciplines: Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics. It is designed to teach these disciplines in a comprehensive and interconnected manner. During the festival, students from all general, vocational, secondary specialized, and higher education institutions in the country have the right to participate in various categories as teams. Once the registration date for the festival is announced, teams can review the competition rules for the relevant categories and complete the registration form on the festival’s official website for their chosen category.
