In an effort to tackle climate challenges, you now have the opportunity to apply for the Climate Innovation Challenge! This is your opportunity to collaborate with like-minded people across the globe with discussions around climate change, brainstorm innovative ideas, and be part of a changemakers network!
As the climate crisis continues to impact communities across the globe, youth are emerging as powerful voices for change. Recognizing this potential, the Climate Innovation Challenge (CIC) has introduced its fifth iteration, CIC 5.0, a transformative virtual program designed to equip university-level students with the skills, networks, and practical experience needed to address climate challenges. Under the theme “Innovation for Resilience,” CIC 5.0 aims to foster a cross-cultural environment where young people from different parts of the world can collaboratively work on climate-focused social enterprises, bringing innovative and equitable solutions to the forefront.
The program is structured around project-based learning, emphasizing real-world applications and practical skills. By working on projects that tackle Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to climate resilience, students will be able to bring their academic knowledge into practice. With mentorship and guidance from experts, they will explore ways to develop, refine, and implement solutions that make a tangible impact in the fight against climate change.
