Emerging Topics

Educational Partnership

Educational experiences that focus on science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) provide the foundation to prepare the next generation to meet the challenges of sustainably feeding, clothing, and housing a growing world population. The NCASI Foundation is partnering with Children Learning through Outdoor Experiences (ChLOE) to use experiential learning to engage students in science and technology using practical examples from agriculture and forestry, introducing those career paths.
