Future Workers MINT Cluster Secures Funding Until 2027
The 'Future Workers' MINT cluster project in Landshut has secured follow-up funding until 2027. The project, a collaboration between the city, district, university, and local organizations, aims to provide lasting MINT education for young people. A photo session at Weltacker marked the start of the second phase.
The project, coordinated by the MINT service center, involves the University of Landshut, Weltacker Landshut, Dom neighborhood center, MINT Forum Bavaria, and Silicon Vilstal. The Ideenlab initiative is led by 'Kommunalberatung Hauzenberger'.
Weltacker Landshut introduces nature-based MINT learning with 'MINT on the field and in the kitchen'. The Dom center's 'MINT intercultural' subproject targets migrant children, girls, and offers low-threshold access to MINT topics.
Key goals include establishing a permanent MINT workshop and expanding existing offers. The MINT Forum's 'MINT on the move' mobile workshop brings technology and experiments to municipalities and schools.
The Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Space has approved funding until 2027. The project's second phase focuses on sustainability, with the aim of providing long-term, practical MINT education for children and young people across Landshut, including rural areas.
