Kaster-Marcoux Pecha Kucha Showcase

This event will invite teams of 3-4 students to consider challenge related to the triple planetary crisis (climate change, loss of nature, pollution) and how their field of engineering can contribute to a solution. The emphasis will be on “engineers finding real solutions to real problems without creating future problems”. They will present their challenge and solution via a Pecha Kucha style presentation. Pecha Kucha is a fun, short presentation style (20 slides, 20 seconds per slide, all done in 6:40) that's used to quickly share interesting ideas.
