Deadly Labs empowers young Indigenous learners with culturally appropriate scientific knowledge in the form of a kit.

The Deadly Labs program builds on the philosophy of DeadlyScience to preserve the science and technical knowledge of the First Scientists of this land. Deadly Labs empowers young Indigenous learners with culturally appropriate scientific knowledge in the form of a kit. The kits focus around these areas of learning: science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).

This program covers the development, production, and distribution of an at-home or in-class experiment kit for Indigenous learners. The kits are usually created with an Indigenous community and the community Elders. They have autonomy within the project and influence over its direction. Each kit contains where necessary, curriculum aligned experiment lesson plans, learner activity worksheets and an accompanying video. An expert scientist from the relevant discipline supports the development of each kit. The kits celebrate and share Indigenous knowledge where appropriate in order to enhance Indigenous learner engagement with STEM education.
