Events

Our first DOIT action “‘Tüftlerwerkstatt’ – fostering innovation and entrepreneurial skills” as part of the pilot testing of the DOIT approaches was succesfully conducted by our partner Centre for Social Innovation (ZSI, Vienna).

After 4 days of the makerspace for children event at the TU Graz (Austria), the children proudly presented their projects and results. Organiser Martin Ebner (TU Graz) and Sandra Schön (Salzburg Research / DOIT coordinator) gave a short introducation speech on Making with Children and the Maker Days for Kids (in German).
