Green STEAM ecosystems

About the G-STEAM Project

G-STEAM (Green STEAM Ecosystems) is a collaborative project co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme, aimed at enhancing

  • school education through the integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) with a strong emphasis sustainability.
  • teacher competence in STEAM.
  • local STEAM ecosystem building.

Running from October 2022 to September 2025, the project brought together a diverse consortium of educational institutions, universities, and regional authorities across Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.

Objectives and Goals

The project’s objectives included a marked expansion of STEAM in participating schools and regions, improved teacher abilities in sustainable STEAM through specific green STEAM training, and a network of four functioning STEAM ecosystems in the Baltic Sea region. The activities of the G-STEAM project fell under three categories:

  1. The What: The development of green STEAM teaching practices, methods, and materials.
  2. The How: The development of green STEAM teacher training modules for in- and pre-service training.
  3. The Why: The development of local STEAM ecosystems for schools, regions, businesses and other stakeholders to keep STEAM locally relevant.
