Canon Young People Programme

Recently, 90 pupils from primary schools in the Netherlands, selected for their vision of the school of the future, visited Canon’s headquarters in Venlo at the invitation of Canon EMEA.

 

 

Our guests gained insight and inspiration on how to strengthen their ideas through powerful images, all in the context of “The World of the Wijnberg“: a school competition organized by De Wijnberg, a supra-regional school for special education in the Netherlands.

 

 

During their visit, the students were taught how to tell strong stories and achieve change using photos, videos and creative printing. The most creative insights came about how we can use print to turn their ideas into an exhibition. Everyone was so enthusiastic that we got started right away!
