Their aim is to inspire and educate the next generation of changemakers, providing them with the skills, support and opportunities to build a foundation for a better future. Their objective is to create an inclusive environment that fosters collaboration and cooperation among children from diverse backgrounds.

They foster and unleash children’s creative potential to envision a better world. They are dedicated to providing accessible educational opportunities for children from diverse backgrounds, ensuring equitable access to innovative programs regardless of socio-economic status or geographic location. Through creative thinking, their approach inspires innovative solutions to real-world problems. The method encourages collaboration, introduces children to design thinking and teaches them how to approach challenges through a human- and life-centered lens. Through the process of inspiration, ideation, prototyping and presentation, children practice a systematic and structured approach to problem-solving. They are encouraged to use their empathy and creativity to develop impactful solutions to social and environmental challenges, benefiting communities and the world.
