About Us

An innovation incubator for trainers, educators and youth workers since 2012.

Our mission

Prototyping the future of education

We believe the best training methods come from cross-pollination — when professionals from different fields of education meet, challenge each other and build something new together. That's why we created MHI as an incubator: a space where new training concepts are prototyped, piloted with real groups and refined before being scaled through partnerships or EU-funded projects.

How we work

The incubator model

Our core team of senior trainers, coaches, facilitators and gamification experts mentors emerging professionals — university students and recent graduates in pedagogy and related fields.
