As a person, and a young mind who is interested in science, I've always loved progression, whether if it's through science, or history, progression makes humanity better than they have ever been. With progression, humanity guarantees the youth a better future, fueled with technology and innovation. When it comes to reflection, it's obvious that we would need to make mistakes in order to do better. It's how we as humans, learn, to be better and to strive for better. It gives hope for us to continue research through thick or thin. And with that, I would like to introduce my topic which is, "Learning through trial and error guarantees us a better future". I hope to really show the youth that making errors is part of human nature in order for us to progress into innovations and such.

Noah Collander
IB Alumnus
Parking fees were implemented in Limhamn to decrease an alleged exploitation of parking spaces. But were they successful, or did they mainly bring about unintended side-effects? What consequences have the notorious parking fees really led to? These are the questions that IB alumnus Noah Collander asked and subsequently researched through the lens of microeconomics. In this compelling and insightful talk, he presents his research and draws conclusions regarding the parking fees’ efficacy, while commenting on the ability of economics to correct market failures.
