鈥淎s one of the nation鈥檚 leading STEM education organizations, the 京东影业影视传媒 & the Public is pleased to see that the U.S. Federal Government鈥檚 new five-year STEM strategic plan includes a focus on giving students the ability to do authentic STEM research.聽This type of research, along with hands-on participation in science fairs, are instrumental to growing the next generation of problem-solvers, who are going to tackle global challenges like food security, climate change, and global pandemics; create new industries and new jobs; and ensure the importance of science in public life. Through our affiliated fair network, which includes fairs in every state from rural Mississippi to urban Chicago, we are inspiring students to participate in real-world, experiential learning.聽Regardless of geography, gender, race or class, all children deserve these opportunities, and the Society will always advocate and work on their behalf.鈥�
