Fellow helps Lead EdTech Syndicate Lebanon to New Heights with Autodesk Partnership
Fellow Noura Merhabi (Lebanon, 2024), a board member and the Vice President of International Partnerships at EdTech Syndicate in Lebanon, has been instrumental in the organization’s recent recognition by KnowledgePoint Limited, the entity responsible for International Partnerships at Autodesk. This acknowledgment highlights the Syndicate’s efforts in equipping students, professionals, and educators with digital skills and engineering innovation through Autodesk Tinkercad and Fusion.
One of the key highlights of the Syndicate’s program is the Make:able Challenge, which invites students to apply their creativity in solving real-world problems by making accessible, sustainable, and innovative designs. Autodesk’s tools, especially Tinkercad and Fusion 360, have been pivotal in providing students with practical, hands-on experiences that foster creativity, innovation, and problem-solving, by helping students visualize and prototype their ideas.
Through its programs, EdTech Syndicate Lebanon has engaged over 500 students and professionals in STEAM++ Innovation, empowered learners to transform ideas into real-world solutions, trained participants for Global Robotics Competitions and the Make:able Challenge, and promoted sustainable design and environmental governance with Autodesk tools.
“A huge thank you to the TechWomen exchange program for providing the platform to connect with Bobbie Casey, who leads Autodesk Foundation,” Noura shared in a recent post.
