Youth4Health


Description

The Youth4Health Challenge makes children reflect on their own attitude towards health and behavior and stimulates them to come with solutions based on technology. The participants work in teams and challenge one another with original ideas, which is at the basis of entrepreneurship.

Ahti initiated the program and developed the course together with Stichting Jong Ondernemen, a foundation that stimulates young entrepreneurs. 280 primary schools outside of Amsterdam and 51 in Amsterdam requested the school kit. In Amsterdam, the closing of the program was a real challenge that took place at Science Center NEMO.
