Dear students,

Social Innovation Competition - Y- Innovator! Challenge

The first ever Y-Innovator! Challenge (the Y-Innovator!), organized by Innovation Lab - a youth incubators platform supported by UNICEF HK, aims to unleash young people's creativity and potential in solution focused innovation. The Y-Innovator! would like to empower and encourage local youth to generate non-traditional ideas, develop practical solutions and deepen understanding on social issues related to children and youth development.

In the Y-Innovator!, UNICEF HK will openly recruit teams of youth aged 18-24 to solve issue of local and regional communities. To equip youth with relevant knowledge and skills to generate unconventional solutions, a bootcamp which consists of a series of inspirational talks and training workshops will be organized. Initial solutions generated in the bootcamp will enter a screening process, in which 8-10 shortlisted ideas will be turned into prototypes for public showcase and final judging.

Application deadline is 18 October 2020 (Sunday). Please refer to the attached document for more details of the programme or you may visit the project website: https://bit.ly/Y-INNO.

Should you have any enquiries, please feel free to contact Mr. Eric Tang of UNICEF HK at 2836 2937 or [email protected].
