Want to find out more? Come to the workshop on Wednesday 22 October at Campus Rachelsmolen in Eindhoven.
Register for our workshop now!
On 19 November, Eindhoven will be all about innovation and inclusion. During the WAVE-nement, four design teams will present their brand-new prototypes — specially developed to make education and the workplace more accessible to neurodivergent young people.
You can experience these innovations for yourself, test them and help shape them with your feedback. This is your chance to actively contribute to a future in which everyone can participate.
Doors open at 1:45 p.m. The programme kicks off at 2:00 p.m. with an energetic workshop by improv theatre group Interacting (Boom Chicago), followed by interactive sessions and stations that you and your group can visit.
Neurodivergent young people have more difficulty finding internship posts and first jobs. Their knowledge and skills are also more often underutilised when performing work. This leads to a double waste of talent: for the young people themselves, who cannot realise their full potential, and for society as a whole, which misses out on important perspectives, creativity and innovation. This has to change!
Meeting & connecting:
Working together towards an inclusive society with a diverse team of (neurodivergent) pupils, students, tutors, lecturers, teachers and professionals.
Developing talents:
from the principles of design thinking, we develop innovative learning activities with the aim of bringing all talents to fruition, including your own.
Making an impact:
Together, in small steps, start a movement that contributes to inclusion and reduced (self-)stigma of neurodivergent individuals. Small steps, big dreams.
