1. Help a person, Change the world. https://younginnovators.my/

2. Maker Culture provides the platform to develop life skills through making with technology Students today consume technology rather than create with technology. They indulge heavily in social media and computer games. Through making, they become creators. This STEM-based learning platform nurtures their inborn passion to learn and equips them with life skills. Technology will be core knowledge applicable to any career in the future. Artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, 3D printing, and other forthcoming technologies will play a role in every aspect of our children's lives The program provides opportunity for them to create and apply open-source technologies in various fields. Life skills will provide a competitive edge in a future dominated by machines In a consuming mode as opposed to creating mode, students lack opportunities to develop life skills – communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. This program provides the opportunity to invest in developing the projects of their interest. The experiential learning journey nurtures their life skills. To develop life skills through creation of technology-based projects PROGRAM OBJECTIVES

9. Theme for 2023 Participants Open to students 17 years old and below registered in secondary schools in Malaysia. Challenge This year we want you to focus on helping an everyday hero* within your community**. Identify a real problem that this person faces and design a solution that solves the problem that has a social impact***. Your solution must consist of open-source microcontroller (for example, Arduino, Raspberry Pi) and/or developed with open-source software (for example, App Inventor, IDE, Python). * An everyday hero is an ordinary person who has dedicated their life to helping others or does not hesitate to provide help to those in need. **A community is a group of people who share something in common. You can define a community by the shared attributes of the people in it and/or by the strength of the connections among them. E.g.: Your school, family, village, neighbourhood, sports clubs, religious group, gamer etc ***A significant, positive change that addresses a pressing social challenge within your community
