Who we are

Artù: not just robotics

Robots and challenges are a vehicle for learning the most important “life skills.” Participants often do not know what to expect from the program or from them themselves. Yet they return home, even after their first participation, with a new vision, with confidence, and with a sense that they can truly create their own future.
