FTP-Europlanet are pleased to announce that they will be part of a team of scientists and educators across Europe who have recently been awarded funding for a new project based upon engaging primary and secondary school students and teachers in the subject of asteroids, meteors, and planetary defence, raising the interest in science and space exploration, while at the same time improving their competences in STEAM school subjects and other skills.

The 3 year project brings together expertise from INAF (Italy), COSPAR (France), EA (Greece), FTP Europe (Germany) and NUCLIO (Portugal) and we will develop a toolkit containing materials, resources, and activities, and train teachers to use the toolkit with their students.
