"We can see a generation that will be able to not only use technology but also to produce technology in the way they want."

In this episode, Nour, the host and founder of Femmes Designers, is joined by Dr Paola Guimerans, an E-textiles education specialist and an Interaction Design and Wearable Technology expert. She is the founder of the Edtech company Aula STEAM and the author of the online wearable tech DIY resources platform PrototipadoLAB. Paola believes in the power of technology in enabling the next generation of makers. Teaching children to use E-textile, she promotes Computer Science in education and breaks gender stereotypes. From the gap in skills between students and teachers to advice for young people wanting to explore a career in STEAM.
