UNESCO World Conference
We are honored to have been selected to present our pioneering approach to sustainable energy innovation in education at the prestigious UNESCO World Conference on Education for Sustainable Development.
Transforming education through innovation
The methodology places students at the heart of the learning experience, equipping them with essential skills for the future. Emphasis is placed on problem-solving and decision-making, encouraging critical thinking and real-world application.
Through project-based learning (PBL) and Challenge-Driven Education (CDE), inspired by Harvard and KTH – Royal Institute of Technology, immersive learning environments are created that emphasize collaboration and innovation.
Additionally, the approach bridges higher education, research, and energy innovation, strengthening the link between academia and industry to drive sustainable development.
Meet the Experts
We brought together a panel of distinguished speakers who are leading change in sustainable energy and education:
- Josep Bordonau – Professor at UPC-Barcelona Tech & Co-Founder of EIT InnoEnergy, a European Commission initiative promoting energy innovation and entrepreneurship.
- Simone Accornero – CEO of Flexidao, a Google & Microsoft-backed energy startup pioneering clean energy solutions and sustainability tools.
- Tanai Potisat – Founder of Recharge, a visionary leader revolutionizing clean energy access in Thailand.
