Designathon Works Details
'Working together to design a better future using new technologies.' The Designathon Works foundation envisions a world where children are engaged in co-designing their future world and have the skills to prosper in it. This vision is achieved by spreading a unique educational method which places the child at its heart and is based around design thinking and children's natural interest in technology, to teachers, schools and educational institutions worldwide. The Designathon method asks children to help shape a better world using technology, by finding solutions to real-world problems. By 2023 the target is to train 5,500 teachers and 1 million children as global changemakers. Additionally, the method is spread through tailor-made designathon workshops for businesses and organizations and the annual event: the Global Children's Designathon. Designathon Works has chapters located in the Netherlands, Germany, South Africa, Poland, Tanzania, Croatia, Serbia, Dubai, Aruba, Canada, India, and Spain.
