Center of Technical Culture (Centar tehničke kulture) Rijeka is a non-governmental organization established in 1993 that works primarily on encouraging and promoting technical and IT knowledge and skills, as well as promoting scientific, IT and cultural achievements through implementation of educational contents. The organization also develops its own capacities for implementation of programs of social inclusion and attempts to achieve sustainability by creating a specific model of social entrepreneurship.
We provide basic, intermediate and advanced educational programs, thus satisfying needs of different groups of our citizens – from those who have never used a computer before or haven’t dreamt of controlling a robot, to those who want and know how to program a smart home. Our Centre gathers children, young people, adults and elderly people. Through our activities, we want to instill into everyone a desire for research and knowledge.
We are particularly sensitive to the most vulnerable groups of our society and are always ready to go the extra mile for them so that they too can realize their potential and take advantage of given opportunities.
We see STEM, and especially the digital and technical literacy of citizens, as an integral part and foundation of individual and community development.
