To welcome in the new millennium on January 15-16
Art Without Walls in partnership with the Brooklyn Friends School will
facilitate and host, it's "First annual science and technology
conference"for high school students and city area youths participating
in community service projects. Its purpose is to explore the practical
development of a networking consortium of youth, private and public
sectors to address problems associated with the emergence of modern
technologies in the national so-called under class community and a
targeted group of underdeveloped-developing foreign nations. Although
this initiative is multi-faceted and comprehensive, one of its major
objectives is to tap these youths perception and critical analysis of
the education, access and viable utility of such technology tools in
the context of the targeted subjects circumstances. We hope this
initiative will provide to participants motivation, a sense of
practical empowerment and the resources and capability to effectively
address these issues. The conference will consist of a series of
workshops, interactive panel discussions and problem solving activities
between youth and professionals, lectures and informational discourses
on up-to-date topics and service components in the cyber-science
field.
