Create a brighter future for all

Wageningen University & Research is inviting students from around the world to develop an innovative, nature-based perspective for one of the most climate-vulnerable regions in the world, the Bangladesh delta region. Can you visualize the potential of nature-based solutions to respond to the biggest challenges of the 21st century: climate change and biodiversity loss?

Join the Challenge to learn more about nature-based solutions, grow professionally and make friends for life. This experience will boost your career and empower you to create change!
