European Innovatory

With this project we aim to create European Innovatory, a European  movement of 840 high-school pupils, 70 teachers, 50  experts and decision makers involved in a creative and  collaborative learning process identifying needs and  problems in society and providing creative solutions on local and European level based on the method of  Design Thinking until 2023.
