Solv[ED] Youth Innovation Challenge 2022

SOLV[ED] YOUTH INNOVATION CHALLENGE is accepting solutions!

Young people hold the empathy, power, and ingenuity to solve problems, in their communities, the world, and everywhere in between. Solv[ED] is designed to spark a sense of agency in young people aged 24 and under, encouraging, inspiring, and supporting them to become problem-solvers in their communities and the world.

Millions of children are still out of school. The negative impacts of climate change continue to accelerate and shock our natural, social, and economic systems. Economic inequality is growing within and between countries. A global pandemic is exacerbating and exposing massive health and social inequities. Everyone needs to roll up their sleeves and take part in addressing these challenges. Everyone has a role to play. And it’s never too early to get started.

  • Accelerates healthcare access and health outcomes, reducing and, ultimately, eliminating disparities in health
  • Takes action to combat climate change and its impacts
  • Addresses an unmet social, environmental, or economic need not covered in the four topics above.
