UNEP-DHI Eco Challenge 2017
UON Singapore, with the support from PSB Academy, is organising the UNEP-DHI Eco Challenge 2017 as a local competition partner. This is an online game competition, conducted in English and will be available for three days only.
The aim of this competition is to engage students between 14 to 26 years old as teams (2 members/team) and encourage them to learn about sustainable water, climate and environmental management in a fun way. This year, we will be using a brand new version of the game focusing on water scarcity issues as well as the new Sustainable Development Goals.
The competition is open to all UON Singapore and PSB Academy's students from all disciplines. Participants will compete with one another in the Local Category, as well as with participants from all over the world in the Global Category.
