Way Finders: The Future is in Your Hands
7 June 2022
Last year, we collaborated with Praxical and Sydney Experimental Arts Ensemble to create a novel event for 300 students!
The year is 2050. Unrestrained use of fossil fuels, single-use plastics and natural resources has led to an uncertain future for our planet and society. We’re calling on today’s brightest young thinkers to decide the future of planet Earth and its populations.
Our event on an interactive choose-your-own adventure and create your path towards a brighter future. The Way Finders: Choose Your 2050 mission is to empower today’s kids with the knowledge they need to build a healthy, thriving planet with sustainable technology.
