Session

How can libraries be a place for the citizens to dream of a better future?

Aarhus Public Libraries and the LEGO Group launched a new partnership earlier this year to bring Build the Change workshops to the library field. The vision is to give children a voice and use their ideas and visions to inspire leaders around the world. In a Build the Change workshop children use their imagination to build their version a better future for the planet.

Learn more about the partnership, experience the workshop format and discuss the benefits of making libraries in to dream labs.

Maximum capacity: 20 people
