About

Learn with us, make with us, discover with us.

Our mission is to work alongside rural, remote, Indigenous and other communities, to support the development of STEAM skills through innovative technology, art and play.

We have seen and demonstrated how STEAM learning interconnects with land-based teachings and cultural storytelling to promote community-led innovations and sustainability. We are committed to working collaboratively with others to bridge the digital gap, by publishing the Root & STEM magazine and podcast to spotlight diverse voices in STEAM innovation and education
