Maker Faire Rome 2023
Future Makers 4 Sustainability
A sustainable society is made up of many ingredients: inclusion, technology, health, research, rights and clean energy. Education, awareness, exchange between generations are the red threads that link them and make them interact. This is a place that wants to convey a new concept of sustainability: from environmental to social, up to correct lifestyles and a correct cultural approach. In this logic, all these elements are fundamental for thinking the future. Future without the protection of the rights of the world and of people cannot exist and there cannot be a sustainable world without innovation and technology. This is the mission of Future Makers 4 Sustainability at Maker Faire: to bring builders of the future together to give hope and tools to those of tomorrow. Time4child, ENEA, World Food Programme, CNR, Arci Solidarietà, Sea Shepherd, Jane Goodall Foundation. Together with 6 laboratories to imagine a just future.
