We believe in the importance of informal science education. Through our efforts, we are also trying to enhance the overall quality of Science Education, regardless of the socio-economic background of children in Pakistan. We are also trying to bridge the gap in making Teaching a joyful experience for both teachers and students. We believe that these formative years are crucial deciders of how a child will perceive Science education and STEM-related careers later in life.
Through this fellowship, you are not only helping us in our cause to popularise STEM education in Pakistan, but you are also gaining valuable insight and training in becoming effective Teachers and Science Communicators. We understand the importance of making your effort sustainable, and thus, this Teaching Fellowship is a paid opportunity. Science Fuse will open its doors to allow you to network with our community of over 200 people and hopefully form lifelong bonds. After successfully completing the Teaching Fellowship, we will reward your efforts to generate social impact through a Fellowship Letter.
We hope to work together with you and change the perception of science amongst our nation’s youngsters and make Pakistan a prominent and competitive hub of STEM education and careers in the global field.

The Science Capital Educational Approach
Our Pedagogy
We are encouraging everyone to develop a lifelong journey with science at Science Fuse. And we believe that begins best with children and young people. Science is a universal language. So we have designed an informal Science Education Curriculum for 3 – 14 year-olds. We are inspired by local and international curricula; bringing forward the best of both worlds to build scientific literacy and enhance the quality of science education.
Our curriculum is designed using the Science Capital Teaching Approach to help students aged 3 – 14 years find more meaning and relevance in science. As a result, they engage more with the subject. Researchers from University College London, King’s College London, the Science Museum London and 43 secondary science teachers in England have worked to build this inspiring ideology. The ideas for this approach were co-developed and tested over four years.
