What is the problem you found?

The problem that we found while doing our research for cultural diversity is that lots of the younger generation do not know how to value the importance of culture. If people are more aware of different cultures it will help people be inclusive and more aware.

What is your opportunity?

How might we spread awareness to younger people about different cultures?

Who is your audience?

The customer of our educational program would be schools, who would wish to start developing cultural awareness from a young age, so it is easier to include and help others who are different cultures in the future.

What Is Your Solution?

We are planning to have a cultural week instead of one day for kids in the years 3-4. Each day is a different culture with activities like doing the most popular game from that country, video calling schools from different countries, and colouring in cultural pictures. We would also have Harmony Day on Friday (dress up cultural day) to make all cultures feel recognised. This would also happen in workplaces.
