IDEAS Hub programme rationale and overview
Overview
This aims to provide a rationale and structure for the programme that the IDEAS Hub will seek to develop and deliver in order to realise its mission: To provide a place that inspires and supports our community to explore, innovate, collaborate and create sustainable solutions to shape a better world.
Programme Elements
Working backwards from the mission we can devise a hierarchy of elements that are needed to support community members through a process or cycle from exploring, collaborating, innovating to creating sustainable solutions in the real world. These are:
- Developing core skills
- Being inspired and exposed to new ideas
- Being guided and mentored through developing real, sustainable solutions
- Aligning our purpose with the UWCSEA Strategy 2018–2023
Breaking this down further, we can create a list of specific activities under each heading that we need to provide:
| Develop Capacity | Inspire and Inform | Help Growth |
|---|---|---|
| Access to the space and resources | Presentations from relevant speakers | Provide a pool of mentors and connect people |
| Self study, just in time training and learning materials | Showcases, physical, virtual, show and tell sessions | Provide in-depth incubator support |
| Training courses | Artist in residence | Guide and Mentor |
| Tapping in various information sources | Events, such as Maker Days, Hackathons, Open Days | Experience through kinesthetic learning |
| Competitions |
