Established in 2019 by Unilab Foundation, in partnership with the University of the Philippines Diliman College of Education, CISTEM aims to establish Integrated STEM Education and collaborates with like-minded organizations to revolutionize STEM Education in Asia.
Inspired by the community, driven by innovation, and backed by research, our programs help teachers to thrive in the rapidly evolving education landscape and prepare learners for the workforce of the future and for a better quality of life.

I am impressed with the work we have done together with CISTEM on Plastic Sustainability Education for Children. Their engaging and technology-driven approach to sustainability has significantly raised awareness among young learners. I highly recommend CISTEM to our Southeast Asian partners for their expertise and impactful educational programs.
Plastics Sustainability Education for Children
Collaborating with CISTEM has been an incredibly productive learning experience for both my team at UNICEF and the Alternative Learning System teachers who took part in the programme. Integrating STEM and socio-emotional learning (SEL) has been a challenging yet immensely rewarding journey, and CISTEM has been an invaluable partner every step of the way.

Partnering with CISTEM on STEM Education for Sustainability for young girls in public schools has been an inspiring journey. Their commitment to empowering young girls through STEM has made a significant impact, fostering a new generation of environmentally conscious and skilled future leaders. CISTEM's dedication to sustainability makes them an invaluable partner.
STEM Education for Sustainability
Our collaboration with CISTEM on Learner-Centered TVET programs has been a remarkable experience. Their innovative strategies and commitment to learner-centered education has significantly enriched the way our TVET trainers teach using STEM competencies. CISTEM's expertise and dedication make them an exceptional partner in advancing technical vocational skills.

I want to commend CISTEM for their remarkable initiative to encourage young girls and women in STEM. Their dedication to empowering the next generation of female scientists, engineers, and innovators is truly inspiring. Thank you, CISTEM, for making a significant difference in the lives of so many young women and paving the way for a brighter future.
Women in STEM
We need to consider (1) that our learners should be able to thrive in whatever circumstances they are exposed to; (2) that they are able to adapt and recover from setbacks; and (3) be able to shape and contribute in their own ways on how things can be shaped based on the context that they are in.

You are part of the very pioneering work in advancing the global effort and work on soft skills which is better known as the 21st century skills in the context of the Philippines. Our focus on STEM skills is really a critical part of the foundation skills for preparing people in increasing the digitalized world of work. To be able to work with technologies, to understand technology and is altogether in support of the national effort in pursuing and achieving the IR4.0.
#STEMinTVET
The pandemic has brought to light a lot of challenges in our educational system, and yet it has opened a new ecosystem of learning. As we have all shifted to the online system of learning, we now face the challenge of finding new ways to learn and also finding new ways to train. Through the STEM in TVET learning activities, we hoped that these tools would enrich and strengthen your own trainings in your respective training centers to ensure that our TVET learners are agile, resilient, and competitive in the workplace.
#STEMinTVET
I was truly amazed with the outputs of the students, especially the videos. I can see from their works all the hard work, creativity, and teamwork they've put in their projects. I also admire the fact that they were able to identify common problems in their community, and provide recommendations that are feasible and effective. This only proves that with the right avenue and support from the teachers/school, our students can already provide solutions and make an impact to the community. I hope that they will continue what they've started, and that there will be more people supporting these kinds of initiatives to help these students further improve their projects.
Sorsogon STEAM Research Initiative 2020
It is very fascinating to know that students from Sorsogon practices their creativity using science in order to address various concerns in their community. As a researcher and scientist, I am a firm believer of the great impact of science if applied in terms of various technologies towards the enhancement of human lives. Continue to explore the effects of science and how it can affect our way of living.

This has been a great learning experience for me not only about the recent researches our young scientists undertake nowadays but also about the vast and rich resources of Sorsogon (e.g. pili, mandarin, balimbing, tawa-tawa, bawang, etc.) that they tried to utilize in their studies. Also, it is interesting how these young scientists carefully approached their goals through the scientific method and analyzed their results with the correct statistical tools. Their creativity in creating their video presentations and digital posters while trying to present their research in a systematic manner
is also noteworthy.

Our STEM students have eyes wide-open on the needs around them and are capable, given proper education and resources, to create solutions to address the present challenges of our time.
Good job too to their mentors! Keep learning, building, measuring... repeat!

The webinar gave us insights about handling the new normal teaching and learning modalities. Through the concrete examples given, we are enlightened about the different activities for synchronous and asynchronous learning that we can prepare with the involvement of the community. There are collaborations not only between teachers and students but also, with parents. The fact that parents are very much involved in this condition, their support is highly needed so that students’ learning will be more efficient and meaningful since teachers have limited control.

From the webinar, I was given an idea on how to suitably plot the class schedule for the synchronous and asynchronous activities in this new normal teaching set-up according to the students' capabilities. I believe this will guide my students on what are the things needed to be done in a given period of time.
