INJAZ Kuwait has successfully concluded its “Social Innovation Camp” workshop, held in collaboration with “Zahhab”, a student community that provides all the necessary academic assistance to university students and professors. Held at Al Shaheed Park, on Wednesday 13 December 2017, the workshop has witnessed the participation of 70 students, from different universities, who have enjoyed the workshop and the competitive and enthusiastic atmosphere which filled up the venue.
