Welcome to Inventors4Change
Inventors4Change wants to provide children with tools, techniques and knowledge that let them invent the changes they want to see in the world. It consists of a network of schools and organizations which use Technologies for Creative Learning and Digital Media tools to foster Invention-Based Collaborative Learning among children from different countries. The project is particularly focused on children from underserved communities and children's inventions are inspired by Sustainable Development challenges.
Last Saturday our team went to Tortosa to attend the
Federico Mayor Zaragoza awards ceremony, organized by
UNESCO Tortosa. We are very happy and we feel very honored because we were awarded with the
Federico Mayor Zaragoza - Education 1st Prize for our project.
This award is an important recognition for our work and it keeps us motivated to continue working to promote Connected Learning and Global Citizenship Education among children to help them become changemakers.
Obviously it is
not an award just for the project team, but for all the schools, children and
teachers who have participated in these 4 years.
Federico Mayor Zaragoza is a Spanish scientist, scholar, politician, diplomat, and poet. He served as Director-General of UNESCO from 1987 to 1999. He is currently the Chairman of the
Foundation for a Culture of Peace.
