A Game-Changers & Peace-Keepers’ Hackathon for Youth: The Future of Education, a skills-based, collaborative action-focused Idea-a-thon, based on the Aha! Future Mindset Playbook (c) for sustainable societies.
This is a hybrid event that is coming to H22 City Expo in collaboration with HETCH AB June 4th.

In English
In this Hackathon the participants will work with developing key skills to thrive in the world we live in now:
Cognitive
Social – emotional
Physical
Environmental
Digital
We will look at how to promote peaceful actions through promoting well-being and inclusion through education:
- Safety & trust: When there is love and care, aggression will find it difficult to get a grip.
- Communication skills: When we have excellent & elaborated communication skills we can solve things more easily, one conversation at the time.
- Self management skills: When we don’t act upon impulse, when we analyse, when we consider different perspectives, when we synthesise information; chances are higher that we can avoid conflict.
- Team work & Collaboration: Humans are great collaborators when it really matters. That’s one of the skills that made our spieces survive, even though others were physically stronger.
- Empathy, compassion with others: When we have the capability to put ourselves in other people’s shoes; the risk of conflict is less palpable.
- Inclusion, a sense of belonging: When we have a sense of belonging, when we are part of a healthy community, the chance for sustainable, peaceful societies is greater.
UNSDGs in particular ( and of course all are important):
3: Health and well-being
4: Education
16: Peace, justice and strong institutions.
The participants will work collaboratively to find solutions that can strengthen education for the 21st century.
