This year’s competition theme is “Promote Your Culture with Technology”.

This theme is based on the fact that technological progress is very important for human life today. Because technology is one of the supporting factors for human progress. Living in a modern world, brings us a lot of advantages. Also, living in a modern world means greater globalization flow and higher chance for acculturation.

Living in diversity is good. However, it doesn’t supposed to make us forget where we came from, what is our culture.

Therefore, the purpose of this competition is to develop an idea of promoting your culture with technology. The outlook of the competition is to spark the children of each country to utilize technology to promote their culture. Because technology is not only intended to bring foreign culture into the country, but also to bring the country culture itself abroad.
