About Us: SkyWiseSTEM

As the world’s industries continue to expand, carbon emissions also grow by an exponential amount, leading to damaging climate and habitual issues. Likewise, one of the largest growing sectors: the aerospace industry, accounts for a greater amount of the total percentage of greenhouse gas emissions each year on our planet. If substantial measures are not taken soon towards carbon-zero aircraft design, like our organization is currently doing, this issue will keep proliferating into a major crisis for billions of people worldwide.

SkyWiseSTEM is an organization dedicated to exploring emerging, environmentally-conscious, aerospace technologies to teach and inspire underprivileged students in Brazil and the United States about importance of sustainable engineering and technology in preserving our planet

By hosting hands-on workshops, online seminars, live lectures from professionals, sustainability based aerospace competitions, and deep-delving events into current and future sustainable systems and concepts, our team strives to make an impact on promoting and designing the aeronautical technologies of the future.
