Calling all young changemakers! 🚀 This week, “Global South Next Gen: Voices and Visions” dropped an epic convo with three scientists from our region, proving that tech has no borders and youth have no limits.
1. Building Open Science Tools for Communities
First up is Aisha from Bangladesh, who’s coding open-source lab kits that cost under 20 USD, so rural clinics in India, Nepal, and beyond can diagnose water contamination. 💧 She believes science should be “for everyone, by everyone.”
2. Unlocking the Universe Through Math
Next, meet Rajiv in Mumbai. 🪐 With just math and curiosity, he’s mapping dark matter patterns—and breaking them down into TikTok-friendly explainer videos. His goal? To make the cosmos feel like home for all of us.
3. Making AI Truly Inclusive
Lastly, Sara from Indonesia is on a mission to teach AI new dialects—from Tagalog to Tamil—so virtual assistants can truly understand you. 🗣️ She’s designing apps that adapt to local lifestyles, ensuring tech serves real lives.
Tune in and get inspired! 🌟 Whether you’re dreaming of your own startup or just love cool science stories, these voices are proof that when young minds connect, innovation knows no bounds.
