She is the co-founder, custodian and CEO of Open Design Afrika (ODA), a social enterprise and not for profit company. She is a designer, social entrepreneur, design activist and educator who strongly believes in the power of creativity as a change agent and catalyst to drive and scale systemic change - to develop a future-ready culture of problem solvers and change makers who can confidently add value to the greater good, drive the UN SDG’s agenda and contribute to the design of regenerative economies, thriving communities and flourishing environments for the future. ODA was designed as a key platform and vehicle to drive these important agendas. [br]Suné has published extensively and was one of the key drivers behind convincing the National Department of Basic Education in South Africa to introduce Design as a subject choice at secondary school level. Back in 2006 SA was the very first country in the world to introduce the subject Design at this level. She contributed to the new curriculum in an advisory capacity and later stepped in as the contributing editor for the first Design textbooks and teacher manuals for grades 10-12 which are still in use today. [br]She was the designer, concept and content developer of the Woolworths “Making the Difference Through Design” (MTDTD) program - a finalist in the 2009 INDEX: Design to Improve Life® Awards. [br]Suné was also an assistant researcher for the WDC2014 (World Design Capital) bid in Cape Town and contributed to the initial development phase of the Western Cape Design Strategy (a first for Africa). Currently she also serves on Cape Town’s UNESCO City of Design team and is a proud member of the Pan-Asia Network. [br][/td][td]Professor [b]Zsolt Lavicza[/b] has worked on several research projects examining technology and mathematics teaching in classroom environments in Michigan and Cambridge. In addition, Zsolt has greatly contributed to the development of the GeoGebra community and participated in developing research projects on GeoGebra and related technologies worldwide. Currently, Zsolt is a Professor in STEM Education Research Methods at Johannes Kepler University’s Linz School of Education. From JKU he is working on numerous research projects worldwide related to technology integration into schools; leading the doctoral programme in STEM Education; teaching educational research methods worldwide; and coordinates research projects within the International GeoGebra Institute.[br] [br] [br][br][/td][/tr][tr][td][img]https://www.geogebra.org/resource/xykfkmr5/WJX5omrrAbzlg4jb/material-xykfkmr5.png[/img][br][/td][td][img]https://www.geogebra.org/resource/jf3ywzkg/q5Jv3Yp4QLQsYShk/material-jf3ywzkg.png[/img][br][/td][/tr][tr][td][b]Brady Peters[/b] is an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto and a Director of Smartgeometry. After graduating with his professional architecture degree in 2001, Brady moved from Canada to Europe.
