Maker Faire Tashkent 2025
MakerBox Project
Home: Astana, Kazakhstan
MakerBox is a flexible, portable solution designed to deliver high-impact, hands-on STEM classes. Developed to serve both urban and rural communities, the kit includes multiple versions, each containing a curated set of interactive experiments that teach engineering and design fundamentals in an engaging, accessible way. These kits have been successfully used in bootcamp-style programs across Kazakhstan, providing structured learning on engineering basics. Additionally, they play a critical role in STEM outreach to underserved rural areas where access to traditional Makerspaces is limited or nonexistent. These kits not only foster creativity and technical skills among youth but also promote inclusive education by bringing innovation directly to communities that need it most.
