Our idea
Youth Makerspace Larnaka is an innovative space that follows the successful example of similar spaces operating in the world. It is based on the standards of Makerspaces that are developed by university institutions or communities abroad and provides access to young people to high-level and state-of-the-art equipment to develop prototypes and realize their business ideas. Makerspaces represent the democratization of design, mechanization, manufacturing, and education. Here young people can learn about technology, crafts, and other creative construction processes and methods, share their knowledge and skills, and put that knowledge and skills into practice. The creative spectrum covered is huge!
Our purpose
Youth Makerspace Larnaka offers the physical space and technological equipment for young people to meet, explore, create, invent, share, and ultimately learn. The facility has high-tech equipment as well as non-tech tools, available free of charge. Peer-to-peer learning is at the core of a makerspace mentality, so the makerspace is a creative hub where young people develop their technological, social, and entrepreneurial skills. It prepares children and young people with critical 21st-century skills in the fields of science, technology, and engineering combined with art, design, and critical thinking while building their confidence!
