AFS Global STEM Changemakers programme

After a successful pilot in 2024, we are once again offering the special Australia-New Zealand edition of the award-winning AFS Global STEM Changemakers programme. 

This unique full-scholarship, intercultural exchange program for teens (aged 15-17.5) fosters transformative learning experiences through STEM, global competence, and positive social impact.

50 scholarship winners will participate in an immersive 12-week virtual exchange programme focused on sustainability, intercultural skills, and social impact, co-developed with the University of Pennsylvania Center for Social Impact Strategy.

Scholars will enrich their STEM knowledge and skills through an interactive curriculum, while developing critical global competencies, including problem-solving, analytical skills, and intercultural understanding. The programme culminates with social impact capstone presentations that offer potential solutions to real-world challenges, including climate change and the energy transition.

We'd like to invite you to share this opportunity with your teaching staff and encourage all students with a keen interest in STEM and sustainability to apply!

A minimum of 20% of scholarship spots are earmarked for students from Aboriginal, Māori, Torres Strait Islander, Pasifika, and Indigenous communities, as well as refugees and displaced students.

Applications are open until 15 April 2025
