The New Jersey STEM Ecosystems initiative is modeled after the STEM Funders Network STEM Learning Ecosystems Initiative, which promotes the cultivation of STEM Learning Ecosystems in communities throughout the world. The worldwide STEM Learning Ecosystems contribute to the larger STEM education and learning landscape.
Each of the 68 worldwide ecosystems participate in a Community of Practice, or a national and regional peer-to-peer professional learning network for communities to share information and expertise. More information about the STEM Funders Network and its 84 ecosystems can be found at www.stemecosystems.org.
