At Strawbees, education is more than academic success. It’s about giving every student the tools to shape a better future. One way we do that is by aligning our learning experiences with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), helping students connect STEM and creativity to real-world challenges.
In partnership with UNIC (United Nations Information Centre), Strawbees has brought hands-on STEM learning into classrooms across the globe — from Bogotá, Colombia to Ghana, Africa. These workshops introduce students to design thinking, sustainability, and collaboration through Strawbees kits and SDG-aligned lessons.
“Working with entities such as Strawbees who focus on educational tools to communicate sustainable thinking and living is exactly what we are after.”— Hélène Papper, Director of UNIC for Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela

We’re not just building bridges between straws. We’re connecting students to the world around them. With over 400,000 learners impacted globally, our mission remains clear: deliver quality education for everyone.
