The Genalpha Project Description
The genAlpha Project gives children in Australia access to a network of companies, entrepreneurs, innovators and other out-of-the-box thinkers that are operating and working in domains that we believe play a significant role in our future world.
Our focus is on the Generation Alpha - children born since 2010. They’ll be the largest generation our world has ever seen, the most technologically aware, the most influential and the first generation who has only lived in the 21st century. The term Generation Alpha was coined by Australian Social Researcher Mark McCrindle.
In 2018 we will be organising (as a pilot program in New South Wales):
• 3 site visits for the kids to companies or institutions representing a domain
• 3 domain events for the kids where we will have people from our network sharing their work, views and domain knowledge
• 1 final year-end kids party with representatives from most domains
• in addition, The genAlpha Project maintains the genalpha.org website and provides an online resource (blogs, videos, newsletters) for everyone who is interested to enjoy.
All events are FREE for all kids.
