Fablabs, hacker-spaces, maker-spaces: all areas that are made for making, collaborating, learning and sharing. How effective are these new approaches at encouraging young people to take a hands-on approach to creativity? How are successful hubs of innovation around the world using them to build communities of “makers”, and what’s next in this space? This World Majlis session seeks to answer these questions through a lively conversation that brings together diverse thought leaders, visionaries and changemakers.
