Ananas" means "pineapple" in almost every language... except English!The platform enables a chat like environment for kids in which they teach each other their respective languages. Prompted by flash cards and icons, each child teaches and learns a new language from a real peer on the other side.If children around the globe could become friends from a young age, maybe they would grow up to be more tolerant and open minded? What if kids could teach each other about their cultures through simple and beautiful things in life… What do you eat for breakfast in Tokyo? What does first grade look like in Beirut? How do you sing happy birthday in French?The infrastructure Ananas creates will enable the cultivation of real friendships between children around the world from a young age, exposing them to each other's cultures and backgrounds in a way that has never been done before. Ananas will drive social impact and global citizenship by raising a more tolerant, open minded and culturally aware generation.
