space4youth Guidelines

space4youth Guidelines

This peer-to-peer event format introduces space topics to a young community. In a co-design session participants learn how to teach, gain confidence in presenting and start sharing their own knowledge and skills with their peers. Further, they will implement their own ideas as an event. The event can be a talk, a skill sharing session, a tour through an exhibition, a workshop, a TedX style youth conference etc. The peer to peer aspect here is most important.
