Hi there,
We want to share with you that the last winter the Proacceso Foundation organized the Robotic Fest 2017 event, in which more than 130 children and young people from the State of Mexico participated.
The objective of the event was to empower children and young people through the use of new digital technologies so that they have access to better employment opportunities and entrepreneurship in the future.
A total of 44 robotics projects were presented by teams of students from the Innovation and Learning Network (RIA) centers, 15 girls and boys won a special prize sponsored by Microsoft Mexico, who hosted the evento too for free.
Young people captured their creativity and knowledge in programming by showing robots that had motion sensors, clocks with intervals and automated functions.
The last week we delivered the prizes.
Thanks to your support these guys can still developing their digital skills. Don´t stop and continue helping us to bridginf the digital divide!
