Dr Kelly Page facilitated the EarthTech Youth Ideation Roundtable today. A fantastic group of passionate and connected youth, sharing their ideas around how the EarthTech Challenge can be run, and what resources they need to see their ideas come to fruition as fast as possible.
The entire EarthTech team were blown away by the ideas streaming out of the youth at the session.
We are continually humbled by the talent coming around the EarthTech Challenge. Today was one of those days when a global leader in Youth Innovation was introduced to us. Dr Kelly Page is helping to facilitate a youth roundtable, and flesh out the content that is a key part of the 6 week EarthTech Challenge. Exciting times ahead for the youth of Australia.
#earthtech the movement has officially launched out of the Digital Hub in Peregian.
On Friday night 29th April 2019, the co-founders of EarthTech shared a vision, mission and high level execution plan on discovering, supporting and utilising exponentially scalable technology to make life sustainable on earth.
We believe highly scalable technologies can provide a new way to combat one of the largest challenges of humankind’s existence.
We also believe Noosa is the perfect location to birth EarthTech, based on decades of hard work by individuals and the Council who came before us. They fought for the environment and created a culture that is truely ready for this region to become the global epicentre for #earthtech.
