FASESA, Boeing Continue to Chart a Bold Course for Space Education in Africa

The Future African Space Explorer’s STEM Academy (FASESA) and Boeing launched the second edition of the “Pathways to Space” program in Africa.

On May 6, the educational program returned to Ethiopia and Nigeria and made its debut in Kenya. The program will reach up to 300 state schools’ students aged 13-18. It is a collaborative effort with local educational and government institutions in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Nigeria.

“The ‘Pathways to Space’ program leverages Boeing’s extensive experience in space, combined with FASESA’s proven educational methodologies and deep understanding of the African educational landscape, to inspire the next generation to reach for the stars,” said Kuljit Ghata-Aura, president of Boeing Middle East, Türkiye, Africa, and Central Asia. “We are proud to continue our partnership with Boeing. This program reflects our shared dedication to building Africa’s future workforce in space and other STEM fields,” said Sean Jacobs, executive director at FASESA.
