East Airport International School (EAIS) in Accra, Ghana, has taken a significant step in transforming STEM education by introducing Project-Based Learning (PBL) focused on the role of hydrogen in electric mobility. This initiative, sponsored by The British Council and The Royal Academy of Engineering, aims to equip Ghanaian students with practical skills and innovative thinking to address real-world challenges. Dr. Tabbi Wilberforce Awotwe, an Engineering Education lecturer at King’s College London, led an interactive session where students explored hydrogen's applications in sustainable transport and brainstormed ideas for hydrogen-powered vehicles. The initiative emphasizes the importance of long-term partnerships between Ghanaian and UK institutions to tackle climate challenges through education. With a goal to reach over 650 students nationwide, the program seeks to prepare the younger generation for careers in emerging fields like clean energy, robotics, and artificial intelligence. Teachers at EAIS praised the initiative for inspiring students, fostering critical thinking, and nurturing a culture of innovation. By integrating clean energy topics into STEM classrooms, Ghana is positioning itself as a leader in African-driven solutions for a sustainable future, emphasizing the role of students as future environmental stewards.
