This initiative aims to enhance the awareness of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) among students and inspire them to observe the world, care about life, and establish a sense of social responsibility and mission to change the future with technology. Now, we are about to welcome the annual award ceremony of this challenge, and at the same time, launch a European study tour, giving award winners the opportunity to gather with young people from around the globe to share innovative ideas and project practices.
