Global initiative to foster creativity and innovation
BE OPEN, a creative think tank founded by the international entrepreneur and philanthropist Elena Baturina, is launching its next global open call for visual responses that address the creative ability to change the way we see the usual world around us.
The open call named #BeOpenDesignDetails aims to explore the way creative approach may transform the small into great. It is open for submissions from April 4 to May 10 2017.
The number of schools signing up to participate in the astronomical educational project ‘Discovery in a Week’, developed by Russian humanitarian foundation ‘Noosphere’ in cooperation with the Mayor’s Fund for London is increasing, and till the end of the year the number of schools involved will exceed 20.
At the moment, children from six London schools – Hammersmith, Forest Gate Community School, Sanders, Mount Carmel, Lister Community College, UCL Academy – are not only enhancing their theoretical knowledge, but also making real astronomic discoveries by analysing pictures produced by a powerful telescope in Australia.
