CONNECTED CURRENTS
Navigating Uncertainty Together
STAN 2026 • Virtual Conference • February 24-26, 2026
Join us in February for three days of
professional development and networking opportunities.
In a world where change is the only constant, science educators and non-profit leaders are being called to adapt, innovate, and connect like never before. This year’s conference will focus on empowering the STEAM community to build resilient networks, share adaptive strategies, and foster meaningful collaboration in the face of uncertainty—grounded in the principles of change management to navigate transitions effectively and sustainably.
Connected Currents will bring together educators, program directors, community organizers, and advocates from across the STEAM landscape. Through interactive sessions and collaborative workshops, we’ll explore how to sustain engagement, promote equity, and maximize impact in a rapidly evolving world.
Join us online to exchange ideas, spark partnerships, and strengthen the collective current that drives science outreach forward.
