MAPBOX

Morocco’s Hassan II Academy of Sciences and Technology hosted the triennial conference of the IAP Science Education Programme.

Since 2003, IAP has been implementing a global Science Education Programme (SEP) with the objective of improving science education in primary and secondary schools around the globe. The IAP SEP, led by a Global Council of experts, specifically promotes the inquiry-based science education (IBSE) approach.

On 16 March, members of the IAP SEP Global Council met with invited guests at the headquarters of the Hassan II Academy of Sciences and Technology (H2AST) in Rabat, Morocco, to discuss the latest developments and progress in promoting IBSE, including the results of several small grants provided by IAP for projects in different countries.

Welcome addresses were provided by Omar Fassi-Fehri, Perpetual Secretary of H2AST, and Wafa Skalli, Chair of the IAP SEP Global Council and representative of H2AST, the lead academy of the IAP SEP.
