This Ideathon will place young people in diverse groups they are unfamiliar with to create synergies , where a series of timed and prepared questions will guide them to create solutions for a presented case.

The modality of this is based on authenticity ,flexibility and interoperability of young minds in the IG community.

We understand the importance of a young relevant culture, hence our Ideathon will also involve a social media challenge of the best dance/art to support inclusion of the majority in the internet space.

We shall use elements of multimedia and games to easily send messages, and each session shall have entertainment breaks where we shall welcome artists to showcase their work, from poetry performance with quick analysis, music, dance, and paintings.

Dancing with The Data: This is a short physical activity that will have balls with messages, the balls will be thrown randomly and the reader will dance and explain the concept as they pass the ball to someone else,

Our session will start with a debate about the IGF themes with debaters who will bring contrasting opinions about the matters with the aim of quenching more questions and solutions. This ideathon will be a safe space of innovation and expression both on-site and virtual.
