About
What MakeX Lebanon does
We run the national qualifier for the global MakeX robotics programme, and support schools and mentors year-round.
STEAM education, in practice
Teams design, build and program a working robot to solve a fixed set of missions. Engineering, coding and teamwork are assessed together, not in isolation.
A category for every age
From four-year-olds driving an mTiny along a path to nineteen-year-olds writing autonomous routines, every student competes against peers at their own level.
A route to the world championship
National winners represent Lebanon at MakeX intercontinental and international events, and at the MakeX World Championship.
Beyond Lebanon
