🥁 𝙸𝙼𝙿𝙰𝙲𝚃 𝚂𝚃𝙾𝚁𝙸𝙴𝚂 𝟸𝟶𝟸𝟶: I gave a speech at Global Community Bio Summit 2020 about “Societal Empowerment Through Science Education” via DreamSpace Academy.

We discussed:

📍 How does my work/ approaches can be translated and connected to social empowerment?

📍 How science education can directly or indirectly cause social empowerment?

📍 How can my work show that skill-based science education is important for collective development?

☝️ Global Community Bio Summit, an initiative at MIT Media Lab, is a space for the global community biologists, members of independent and community laboratories to convene, plan, build fellowship, and continue the evolution of the movement.
