HacKIDemia has facilitated workshops at the Singularity University Summit Europe (14.-17.11.2013) and in the vocational school for Roma people Burratino on the 13.11.2013.
Workshops included:
Upcycling of old webcams into microscopes
Air quality monitoring activities
Social Robots
Extraction of DNA from fruits
Bacteria batteries building
During the whole week we organized trainings for local mentors so they can keep on organizing these type of activities locally.
In the end more than 400 children, mentors, parents, teachers have participated in this event. We were amazed by how much the children care about working on solving global challenges and how fast they learn.
We also worked with the most inspiring and amazing team of local mentors, you can join them here if you want to contribute. We're looking forward for their future local inventions.
