Goals under focus

Methodology
S.T.E.A.M School methodology focusses on bringing an interdisciplinary group together who collectively empathise with problems of the local community and then use design thinking as a tool to propose plausible solutions.
These solutions with the support of digital fabrication tools and perspective of frugal innovation/jugaad become into tangible products/services by the end of the program
