Welcome to the We4Change Fest!

This page will include updated information and resources that will be used during the the three changemaking events.

But first, what are the We4Change Changemaking events?

We4Change Changemakers are “hack for good” events where young women with an entrepreneurial mindset, trainers and subject experts come together during a two-day intense marathon in order to solve specific challenges posed by climate and environmental change encountered in their communities. The events include hands-on activities, training on digital, innovation and environmental awareness skills, problem-solving and co-creation of prototypes, as well as a pitching session by the changemaking teams.

Materials to be used during the events:

• The Changemaker’s Workbook
• Sustainable Business Canvas Model
• MIT App inventor workshop materials
• “Get ready to pitch your project” worksheet
• Bring your own computer and mobile phone for the digital workshop
