Stichting Designathon Works

About
The Designathon Works Foundation teaches children (8 to 12 years old) the skills that help them develop ideas and solutions for a better world. The children gain knowledge on the SDGs and develop 21st century skills to collaboratively develop new solutions, use new technologies and take action. The Designathon method focuses on building the inner abilities of all children, regardless of their gender, race, class, skill-level or learning situation. It recognises that all children can and want to contribute.
We are committed to a sustainable future and we believe in the importance of participatory learning of children and youth and their representation by their voices being heard and recognised and want to encourage young people to take action. Our global community enables us to reach children all around the world and provide them with the possibility to receive social and environmental education. And for that we have already reached over 100.000 children worldwide.
