As adults, we sometimes tend to be confined by perceived limitations, assumptions and conditioned thinking. We can lose the open-minded inquisitiveness that make young children so good at forming friendships and collaborating.

Coinciding with the start of the World Economic Forum this month – and as a continuation of the 2017 #YoungWEF campaign – we will start comparing the way adults and children view healthcare challenges, which will inspire different, even more boundary-breaking approaches and solutions for the future.
