The University of Warwick were at the Coventry Building Society Arena on Monday and Tuesday this week to support Highly Sprung Performance with their Youth Energy Summit. I think this was a brilliant event that really put young people at the centre of the narrative. They ran the panel discussion, supported the event management, took part in all sorts of roles and responsibilities, and they were fantastic. I ran a couple of workshops and had a great time showing students the value of teamwork to #engineering projects and making sure that we get a product that actually works. I also had fun on the panel discussion using pineapple on pizza explaining why some people say controversial things about the climate to get engagement. It's an odd comparison... but it worked! Thanks to Russ Hall of WMG, University of Warwick for an awesome keynote talk about what energy actually is, setting the context for what the young people would be hearing about for the rest of the day. Russ didn't shy away from sharing detailed information with the pupils but made it really accessible and I'm sure that will have built a lot of belief in them that with time their skills will develop, to the point they will be in highly skilled jobs working with technical data. Thanks to all the research projects and student teams who supported the event with interactive stands for the audience: Warwick Moto | Warwick University Human Powered Submarine | Warwick Racing | Warwick Women in Engineering and Science | #WarwickAgriTech | Warwick Fighting Robots Thanks Warwick Institute of Engagement (Dr Kerry Baker) for supporting the event with workshops and Stephanie Panichelli-Batalla being on the panel with me. Thanks as well to Eon.io for their sponsorship of the event and Coventry City Council for all their input (Rhian Palmer). #HighlySprung #GreenFutures #WarwickSTEM #WMGoutreach
