FabLab Kids
As a public workshop the Fab Lab Aachen offers access to children and young persons to give them the possibility to try out their technical skills. Therefore, the Fab Lab is actively involved in various projects concerning the development of interest of young people and especially girls in informatics and other technical professions.
