In this episode Paul hosts a panel discussion with some of the amazing people at the ASDC conference. At the heart of the conversation is the power of youth voices and sustainability in science. They discuss how organisations are getting creative by involving young people in everything from designing programs to shaping strategies, especially on big topics like climate change. They’re not just consulting—they’re letting kids drive change, teaching them about democracy while addressing urgent issues like decarbonisation. On the sustainability front, science centres are tackling the tough road to net-zero carbon emissions, with some even aiming to go net-positive. While it’s a challenge, the excitement and energy from the conference participants is clear—they’re collaborating, innovating, and staying hopeful about finding new ways to engage with tricky topics like AI. The takeaway? Big challenges, but even bigger ideas!
