ISSUES we are currently working on

https://waffle.io/wizardamigosinstitute/organization

Technology is moving fast and drone delivery, self driving cars, artificial intelligence, 3d printers and many other advancements make it super easy and cheap for customers to do all kinds of things, but unless a unconditional basic income is introduced, fewer and fewer people will be able to contribute something meaningful unless they start to learn the new literacy in order to actually being able to understand technology.

We have quite some experience in teaching programming to adults who switch careers and to kids. In the more recent past, we crafted a curriculum to bring people willing to learn the new literacy up to speed fast and enable them to use technology and eventually even to start programming.

We would like to bring those skills to newcomers from syria and other countries.

If you want to support us, please reach out. We meet every friday, check:

IDEA

The wizard amigos institute project could turn into a digital e-learning platform with offline events and regular offline meetings of learners that is co-owned by parents and fullfills all requirements for becoming a private school.
