In the context of Manaus the Fab Lab will be a platform for TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION and a PLATFORM FOR EDUCATIONAL AND SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION, because Fab Lab brings many alternatives of education, collaboration and idea planning. More than that the Fab Lab is the opportunity for people to create, to experience what they have always dreamed of, which they have always wanted but have never been able to do because of the difficult access to digital manufacturing.
This is the general thread for discussing the lab; the thread is also visible on its page at https://www.fablabs.io/labs/manaus
