Centre for Innovation and Research in Childhood and Youth

Space Invaders: Children, Youth and Public Spaces

The project facilitates children and young people's interventions into public spaces and educating adults about their social worlds. The aim of our activities is to engage with adult anxieties about social media by demonstrating the creative and innovative ways in which children make use of social media. This year we hosted the #iMedia Competition and Space Invaders Debate as part of the project.
