Young Innovators Shine on a Global Stage
Children from Agastya’s design thinking programs recently shined at the Invent Future Global Innovation Challenge. This event brought together over 250 participants from 34 countries. Among the 30 global finalists, four projects created by Agastya children stood out. These projects included:
Easing the Journey of Delivery Workers (from the Innovation-on-Bike Program supported by Adobe)
Innovative Wheelchair for Limb-Impaired Users
Biodegradable Care: Creating Eco-Friendly Sanitary Pads
Smart Dustbin (from the Innovation Hub supported by LSI India Research & Development Pvt. Ltd)
These ideas reflect the children’s curiosity, creativity, and confidence. They designed solutions that not only address real-world problems but also inspire change.
Parents Experience the Impact of Digi-Kshetra's Tech-Driven Learning
Agastya believes that parents play a vital role in a child’s learning journey. To deepen this connection, parents were invited to the Digi-Kshetra Center in Peenya. Here, they experienced digital learning firsthand. They explored how their children engage with robotics, programming, artificial intelligence, and other activities. Through immersive, hands-on sessions, parents gained a closer look at the future-ready skills their children are building.
