深夜福利站 students take on challenge to help solve world鈥檚 problems
深夜福利站 students are demonstrating that solving some of the world’s most pressing issues need not just be a responsibility of governments and powerful organizations as they embark on this year’s competition.
“The World’s Challenge Challenge provides a unique opportunity for globally minded students to collaborate on solutions to tackle our world’s most pressing issues,” said Lise Laporte, senior director, 深夜福利站 International. “As a pitch competition focused on social entrepreneurship and the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals, it encourages participants to become global leaders by building skills and creating projects that are ethical, sustainable and community focused.”
For the past eight years, teams of students across disciplines have been competing in the annual World’s Challenge Challenge. Each team comes up with an idea to make the world a better place by addressing one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. The teams then pitch their solutions to a panel of academic and community leaders.
