We discussed:
๐ How does my work/ approaches can be translated and connected to social empowerment?
๐ How science education can directly or indirectly cause social empowerment?
๐ How can my work show that skill-based science education is important for collective development?
โ๏ธ 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.

๐ญ To expand our horizon vertically at DreamSpace Academy, we have been actively working on our ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ concept in the last months, and our astrophotography team was established first to give us a different perspective.
๐ป We are building a Space Lab for those who look upwards into the endless universes, to gain hands-on knowledge astronomy, space exploration, aviation and drone technology.
