The project focused on these specified fields:
Innovation: We will try to invent/develop new products, but also search out possibilities of an improvement of function/form of different kind of products. The creative inventing/ innovation of new products will also focus on traditional methods related to the arts and craft. We will create products (gifts, souvenirs, jewelry etc.) in different materials, and develop the products through artistic and creative processes.
Entrepreneurship: Each school will try to make entrepreneurships up and going. The students have to establish several companies through "Enterprise without borders." They will also be responsible for marketing and organization of their own company, where they must think innovative and creative to get their ideas out to the public. The purpose is to make young people able to create their own company, and see possibilities for their own future.
Redesign: This project purpose is to redesign old furniture, clothes and different products we will have available. To make old things new again will bring the mentality to see opportunities and solutions instead of a continual contribution to the environmental damage. Our aim is to focus on the ecological aspect within the field of redesign, and increase the knowledge about the problems followed by an expanding use-and throw mentality.
