This Thursday at Change Sidhant Gupta and Rachel Sobel will be leading a discussion on small ideas for big impacts. *Small Ideas for Big Impacts* We will discuss how small ideas can often have big impacts on a society. In particular, we will focus on ideas that make use of fundamental and basic sciences to solve much larger problems. This is science that we are taught in junior and high school, and generally our practical use of this science is much different from those in resource contained environments. We will present a series of videos, products, projects and pictures that show how people in developing nations and under-privileged societies have used principles from this same basic science to come up with fascinating solutions to their everyday problems, and more interestingly, majority of these inventors are illiterate and have no formal education. *What:* Discussion led by Sidhant Gupta and Rachel Sobel *When:* Thursday, Nov 17th at noon *Where:* Paul Allen Center, Room 203
