CHALLENGE
The “Green Campus Hackathon” is challenging everyone in the higher education community to make a real impact on campus life by enhancing international collaboration, creativity, and innovation to propose original, feasible, and sustainable solutions for global environmental problems. Teams will produce solutions that could be implemented into the Universities’ strategic planning, to enhance sustainable and green development according to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and other local or national Green Agenda policies.
