One of my goals for 2020 with @AzraIsmail1, creating more safe spaces to experiment: safety at all levels. Where we do not punish mistakes but celebrate failure. @htTweets @aishwaryaiyer11 hindustantimes.com/education…

Missed tweeting on #GlobalMakerDay earlier this week, but wanted to celebrate this incredible water flow measurement tool developed by Babita at MakerGhat earlier this year: her idea was to take full control of how much water she used on an everyday basis. Super inspiring.

At MakerGhat (shared by @Adi_Vish), College guy: We should build an app for this and use sensors. School girl: Why is your solution always an app? Guy: You don't understand, tech is powerful. Girl: Yes, but you don't need it to solve everything 🙄. From the mouths of babes.

Connections on Twitter, have a look at this amazing community makerspace @MakerGhat based in Powai to encourage the art of making amongst students! Some excellent work going over here!!
Yesterday, we started the first cohort of our fellowship program at @MakerGhat to train and support a new generation of community leaders. One of the concepts that we introduced them to was design thinking.

As an organization, one of @MakerGhat's goals is to create a repository of such context-appropriate tools and curricula. We will be sharing our own materials and learnings as we tune the workshops and would love to collaborate with others!!
