About

What this is

The Curiosity Summit™ is where the movement's builders, researchers and educators gather in one room. Two days of talks on childhood, AI and creativity, workshops for teachers and parents, and a maker fair where chapters showcase their best local projects.

Past speakers have included cognitive scientists studying play, a twelve-year-old who patented a low-cost water filter, and school leaders who rebuilt their curriculum around questions instead of answers. The Summit is deliberately small enough that every attendee has a real conversation, not just a badge scan.

This year's theme is "Raising Humans Who Out-Wonder the Machine" — a two-day exploration of what curiosity looks like when AI can already answer most questions. Sessions run in English, French and Portuguese with live translation.

I came for the talks and left with a rewritten curriculum.
