Sonja Jankulovska, biology teacher from Bitola, Macedonia is one of the three winners in the category Organize a STEM event during the STEM Discovery Week.

The description of the project according to Sonja is as follows:

The aim of this public event was at raising awareness among students and the wider community about the problems related to the environment, and   to influence at forming lasting habits for preservation of the environment

The event included teachers, some parents, the Parent Council, public institutions and education inspectorate. Activities related to this event took place from October to April every Monday there was collective action who were informed through a statement while the ultimate final activity were informed through a poster and a placard was placed in the school building.

I wanted to inspire students to become educators of their classmates, to provide insight and participation in those aspects of the school work affecting the environment and to motivate them to become active participants in the life of the school.
