100BANCH projects bring together many young people who are trying to create opportunities for education and learning that go beyond the framework of school. What are the thoughts and future aspirations of these members, who are also of school-age, as they strive to bring a breath of fresh air to the educational field?

We will be welcoming young panelists who are active in a variety of educational fields to discuss their own perceptions of the "ideal" and "reality" of education, and explore practical approaches to creating the education of the future.
