Since 2024, Pratham, in partnership with Siemens Stiftung and Siemens India, has been implementing the STEM Education for Innovation: Experimento India project to strengthen Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education for school children through hands-on, inquiry-based learning on themes such as energy, environment, and health.
The program focuses on creating and disseminating Open Educational Resources (OERs) in multiple Indian languages while also training teachers and orienting parents and volunteers to support meaningful, engaging STEM learning.
More than 200 OERs have been developed in English, Marathi, and Hindi languages. These resources have reached over 2,500 children in Pune and Mumbai under a “Test and Learn” model. In the coming years, Experimento India aims to reach more than 55,000 students across Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Goa, Haryana, West Bengal, and Tamil Nadu.
