Newton RCUK-SEA -- Capacity Building in STEM to ensure a sustainable community development and a successful astronomical observatory in Timor

该项目提出的STEM教育和推广旨在加强对当地教育的参与，并专门针对教师，为他们提供可用于支持学校教授的STEM科目的资源。接触STEM的实际应用，并有机会直接参与其中，有望鼓励年轻人追求更高水平的教育。此外，结识一个真正的STEM专家团队对他们来说也是一种鼓舞人心的经历。这一早期阶段的人力资本开发预计将在长期内促进经济发展。

The STEM education and outreach proposed by this project is aimed at strengthening engagement in local education, as well as specifically targeting teachers, by providing them with resources that can be used to underpin the STEM subjects taught in schools. Exposure to the practical applications of STEM and the opportunity to be involved in these directly is expected to encourage young people to pursue higher level education. Furthermore, to be acquainted with a team of real STEM experts will also be an encouraging experience for them. This early stage human capital development is expected to initiate increased economic development in the longer term.
