About

At the Eureka! Trust, we want to realise Sir Paul Callaghan's vision of making “New Zealand, the most beautiful, stimulating and exciting place in the world in which to live”. To make this vision a reality we work to increase young New Zealanders interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). In addition to this the Eureka! Trust seeks to foster young leaders who will help to bring about Sir Paul’s vision.

The Eureka! Trust’s key strategies are

• to run a national Eureka! programme that will engage students in STEM communication,

• to run events and activities that showcase young people’s communication skills around STEM and its value to New Zealand and

• to develop continuing networks among participants from the Eureka! programme.
