Imagine 500 creative brains all in action. That was innovation village. Every group was given a topic ranging from Urban Development to Waste, and asked to figure out a solution their given problem.
There were projects like the ecomadia Iphone app, which helped reduce waste by giving students the opportunity to see their food options in the school cafeteria in advance. They could use this app to rate food, and give feedback to the school system. Lastly, students would gain points for bringing reusable water bottles.
Our project was under the category of Urban Development. We created a project called Urban Future which included components that we had learned from Earth University like vertical gardening and solar energy. I talk about it in more depth in my interview with Jim Cantore- http://youtu.be/tomRfDA0HZY
