    Abstract

    To celebrate the long history of collaboration between the RSA and the Comino Foundation, a distinguished panel of designers, makers and educationalists gather to explore the power of making, and to discuss why access to making is important for everyone; how we risk losing the chance for young people to learn through making; and what the RSA, Comino and others are doing to challenge that. Speakers: Professor Daniel Charny, Kingston School of Art and Founding Director of Fixperts; Liz Corbin, Institute of Making and co-founder of Open Workshop; Zoe Laughlin, Co-founder/director of the Institute of Making and the Materials Library project; Bill Lucas, Co-creator, Expansive Education Network & director, Centre for Real-World Learning Chair: Matthew Taylor, Chief Executive, RSA
