"Human Practices are the study of how your work affects the world, and how the world affects your work." — Peter Carr, Director of Judging
WHAT DO WE WANT
We want to show how our project interact with the community, how we are inspired to improve from community feedback, and how our project positively impact the community. By Integrated Human Practices, Education, Cooperation and Communication, Sustainable Development Goals and Entrepreneurship, we strive to bring our programs beyond the lab and into people's lives to make a real difference.
WHAT WE HAVE DONE
Integrated Human Practices
"Your bell can only be heard in unison; when it rings alone, it merely gets lost amidst the din of older bells." We firmly believe that only through continuous deep interaction and integration, can we gather a more powerful force. Following the "SWEET" chain, we bring out project designs and concepts, actively listen to the world's feedback on our projects, and modify our projects to respond to real-world needs.
