SEAQIS Strategic Priorities

Three flagship programmes that shape SEAQIS's direction

Since 2018, SEAQIS has developed three flagship programmes that set the focus and central themes of all its activities — responding to the 7 SEAMEO Priority Areas and the roadmap for 21st-century education in Southeast Asia.

Aligned with SEAMEO Priority Area No. 7 · 21st Century Skills Development
Developed since 2018
The flagships were launched under the 5-Year Development Programme 2020/2021 – 2024/2025 in response to the region's evolving education needs.
Integrated across all programmes
All SEAQIS activities — training, research, workshops and conferences — are designed under the umbrella of the flagship themes to deliver consistent, long-term impact.
Across 11 ASEAN countries
The flagships are not just for Indonesia — they are relevant to, and implemented with, teachers and institutions from all SEAMEO member countries.
3 Flagship Programmes

The programmes that define SEAQIS's strategic identity

Each flagship responds to specific science education needs in the region, and together they reinforce one another.

Coding · Algorithms · Visual Programming

Computational Thinking in Science Learning

Integrating computational thinking (CT) into science learning — not just teaching coding, but building skills in problem decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction and algorithmic thinking in science contexts.

  • Block coding for science experiments (Science-Coding Lab)
  • CT Framework for Junior–Senior High science teachers
  • Integrating informatics into science subjects under the new curriculum
  • CT-STEM training for science teachers and pre-service teachers

Southeast Asia
Climate Change Education
Climate Change · Environment · ESD

SEACEP — Southeast Asia Climate Change Education Programme

A dedicated climate change education programme that integrates climate science and real-world action into science learning in schools across Southeast Asia. SEACEP builds teachers' awareness and capacity to become agents of change for climate action in their communities.

  • Climate change learning modules grounded in local ASEAN contexts
  • Teacher training to integrate climate education into science
  • Partnerships with UNESCO and international environmental organisations
  • Student Action Projects — real student-led climate projects

SEAMEO Priority Area

Responding to SEAMEO Priority Area No. 7

All three SEAQIS flagship programmes were developed in direct response to SEAMEO Priority Area No. 7: 21st Century Skills Development. SEAQIS believes that 21st-century skills — critical thinking, collaboration, creativity and digital literacy — must be built through relevant, contextual science education. STEM Learning builds a problem-solving mindset. Computational Thinking builds digital literacy. SEACEP builds global awareness. Together, they form a single, mutually reinforcing ecosystem.
