Organizer
The EarthTech Challenge is organized and operated by EarthTech (“EarthTech Challenge”, “ETC”, “We”, “Us”, “Our”), a social enterprise based in Noosa on the Sunshine Coast, Australia.
Challenge Purpose
Their purpose is to empower young people to help solve the biggest environmental and social issues of our time. They aim to inspire, support, and scale technologies dedicated to Earth’s sustainability, by bridging gaps between youth education, job creation, economic development and environmental sustainability and supplying the tools they need to make commercially viable businesses as well as tangible impact to the Global Goals in a coherent way.
They do this by bringing together the critical resources: visionary entrepreneurs, subject matter experts, investment capital and a shared purpose through an unprecedented challenge.
It includes a six-week online course run from the 16th December 2019 to 24th January 2020, delivered via a cloud-based platform that provides teams with seamless on boarding, access to expert educational material and mentorship.
The competition aims to achieve and create exponential impact for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals. The SDG’s are a historic and universal call to action to end poverty, solve the climate crisis, protect biodiversity and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030.
Individuals and/or teams can register in one of the following categories: Poverty & Inequality, Food, Water & Health Care, Climate & Energy, Sustainable Futures and Environment & Biodiversity. Entries should demonstrate how the concept relates and is aligned to one or more of the SDGs and how technology, creativity, and innovation can help to achieve the Global Goals.
Each category covers one or more of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Judging criteria includes the impact a submission makes on the SDGs, based on the corresponding metrics. Teams are welcome to describe the impact on any of the SDGs. The category descriptions are not exhaustive or exclusive.
