Emerging Tech & Youth Design

In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of emerging technologies and how they intersect with youth design. Join us as we explore the ways in which innovative technologies are shaping the future and empowering young minds to become creators and problem solvers. Through an insightful discussion with LeeAnne Ireland, Executive Director at Urban Society for Aboriginal Youth (USAY), we uncover the latest trends in emerging tech, such as augmented reality, virtual reality, the metaverse, artificial intelligence and more. Discover how these technologies can revolutionize various industries (including the social sector) and open new possibilities for young designers and inventors.

 

 

In the spirit of our journey to promote reconciliation, we would like to honour the truth of our shared history and acknowledge Treaty 7 territory and the traditional lands of the Blackfoot Confederacy, that includes the Kainai, Siksika, and Piikani First Nations. We acknowledge the traditional lands of the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda, including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nations. We would also like to recognize the Métis people, and the Inuit people who have made their home here in Mohk’insstsis, also known as Calgary.
