How should we equip today’s children to solve the future’s problems? By enrolling them in after-school coding classes, or paying for weekend tutors? Inbal Arieli, a tech entrepreneur, argues that the ‘Startup Nation’ owes its success to a core tenet of Israeli culture: raising children with considerable independence and little adult supervision. In this episode, Arieli explains how the chaos and unpredictability of an Israeli childhood, coupled with the ways in which Israeli children are given real responsibility from a young age, raises a nation of creative thinkers with the chutzpah to solve society’s most pressing problems- and how other countries can adopt something of this Israeli mindset.
