Citizenship: one of the most expansive "C"s with the 6Cs of 21st-century skills, because of the scale and scope of the themes and skills within.
According to P21, "21st Century Citizenship" can be defined as "children who are civically literate, globally competent and digitally literate", and this comprises civic literacy, global awareness and digital literacy. (Source: Partnership for 21st Century Learning)
Within this framework, one of the most timely topics that Citizenship is associated with is climate literacy and action. To this end, Press Start Academy is excited to hear from two Hong Kong-based entrepreneurs who are building their own mission-driven movements:
- Natalie Chung, Co-founder, V'air and Sustainability Lead, DFI
- Walden Lam, Co-founder, Unspun
Join our Founder and CEO Vince Siu as he chats with Natalie and Walden to learn about their vision, mission and journey; how they understand and see their role within the climate action movement; and how they approach their own learning and development within this area.

About the Future Skills Roundtables
The Future Skills Roundtables is an online discussion series curated and hosted by Press Start Academy, aiming to gather passionate entrepreneurs and talented young leaders to exchange insights on 21st-century skills and how they've used them throughout their careers.
Each Roundtable is themed around one of the 6Cs of 21st-century skills - Creativity, Communication, Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Citizenship and Character - and features three guests who have built their successes around exemplifying these skills.
Through these conversations, we will be unpacking the importance of skill-based learning and a well-rounded whole-person education. We hope students, parents and educators alike will join us for a series of interesting, inspiring and important roundtables!
