Teacher Ambassador Program
Generation Hope’s series of interactive activities also include the annual Teacher Ambassador Programme (TAP), now in its fifth year, which is designed to fully equip STEM educators from different schools in the UAE to serve as ‘ambassador teachers’ at EMM educational initiatives. EMM will provide the teachers with the knowledge and material required to educate and train a new generation of space scientists and engineers. The program will also launch a Competition in December 2020.
Building Scientific Efforts
Also held under the Generation Hope Initiative is the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Program; a unique program designed to offer Emirati students specializing in science and engineering an opportunity to gain practical and research-based experience at distinguished space science facilities in the UAE and abroad.
