The Academy’s Spring 2023 Innovation Challenge in Rwanda on “Green Schools, Green Homes, Green Communities” was a great success, engaging the participation of 909 students in 163 teams working to create research-driven solutions to environmental problems faced in their community.
Sponsored by the Clifford Chance Cornerstone Initiative, the Spring 2022 competition tasked students aged 13-17 from Kigali, the country’s capital, to use micro-gardening techniques to broaden access to nutritious food sources.
