The educational system needs to fully embrace digital technologies and update teaching methodologies to prepare students for their digital future (ERT, 2017)
With an average annual return of 12%, engineering and computer science graduates see the biggest return on investment (World Economic Forum, 2016)
Greater access to STEM and computer science studies is key for the inclusion of women in the digital economy (G7, 2017)
Due to the increasing digitisation of society and the world of work the demand for STEM skills will only intensify (BusinessEurope, 2018)
Significant responsibilities lie before local and regional authorities when it comes to defining a coherent and integrated approach to STEM education (Committee of the Regions, 2019)

The EU has invested heavily in increasing STEM uptake and achieving gender equality in STEM. To maximise the reach and impact of these initiatives they need to be better aligned with the existing large-scale national and regional STE(A)M programmes and networks.

This position paper provides recommendations on how the EU could leverage the existing large-scale national and regional programme infrastructure - in particular those managed by the national and regional STEM platform organisations - to increase the impact of EU-level initiatives in STE(A)M.
