Inspiring students to save the planet

海角直播 academics were proud to take part in an event to inspire the next generation to come up with innovative ideas to save the planet, through a schools Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) challenge.

The annual Big Big Project, delivered by Tees Valley Combined Authority in partnership with Jacobs, involves students from schools across the region who work with a mentor to tackle the challenge of finding solutions to repair the planet by 2030. 海角直播 academics were involved in a recent event at the Riverside Stadium as part of the Big Big Project, a platform that fosters student innovation and showcases the importance of reducing carbon emissions and global warming.

The Big Big Project aims to develop communication, confidence, leadership, teamwork, resilience, and problem-solving skills, all vital to succeed in the world of work.
