@idilgaziulusoy Hello from a friendly neighbour! Checkout our MAD project (interact.oulu.fi/mad), where we employ design fiction with schoolchildren to envision ways to reduce bullying (dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.114…)

Futures/Foresight folk; if you know of any resources about involving young kids in futures envisioning please hit me. Very excitedly will work with preschoolers to envision multispecies futures in Sweden end of October as part of NorDark project and searching methodical guidance.

Awesome WS at #MADprojectOulu with students of Oulu International School. We talked about #mobileapps combatting #bullying, reflected how they could be improved, and ideated new #apps in groups. Here are few ideas brewing – What bully could not be soothed with #catvideos?

#MADprojectOulu visited Jääli school where students got familiar with #designfiction, and existing #mobileapps combatting #bullying like #somebuddy. Children reflected how they'd improve the apps, and ideated their own apps in groups. Here are a few great ideas in the making!
