For Students

This Challenge will take you on a potentially life-changing journey. You will have to get out of the lecture halls and put theory into practice!

When you join the Challenge, you will get to know and learn first-hand from top experts in the field of climate change mitigation and adaptation, biodiversity, food systems, land-use planning, and sustainable transitions.

You will develop professional skills and learn how to address a complex problem and manage a transdisciplinary project. In addition, you will receive pitch training from the best coach in the Netherlands and learn how to use social media to create attention for your vision and solutions.

If you make it to the finals, you will get exposure for your concept and your team, inspire policy makers to take action and get a chance to win part of the prize pot worth 12,000 euro!
