Over the years our museum, an institution accredited for training by Italy’s Ministry of Education (prot.n°1.153 del 28/7/2006 D.M. n° 90/2003), has adopted an important role in the childhood educational and cultural overview.

GARDENStoGROW also aims to strengthen the teaching profession, by making the careers of teachers and school leaders more attractive through a European opportunity; supporting teachers in dealing with diversity in the classroom (including pupils with a migrant background), through hands-on and informal activities based on horticulture; supporting educators in adopting collaborative and innovative practices; and strengthening leadership in education, through an active involvement from the school leaders.
The Japan Science Museum Association (JASMA) is one of the biggest networks of science centers and museums in Japan, with about 190 members nationwide. The objective of the association is to promote science communication activities and STEAM through regional science centers’ traveling exhibitions, workshops, training program, and more.
As a second step, JASMA offers a good-practices platform. JASMA has created a special website for SDGs that is available for all members to share ideas with colleagues. Our activities involve JASMA members from Hokkaido to Kyushu, and after few months, many good practices were posted on the website. We’ve showcased local efforts in helping to share knowhow and links with SDGs that leads to further promotion and progress for all.
