Registration Open: 2017 Geneva Challenge for Master’s Students
Access to employment is regarded as a tool to improve living standards and eradicate poverty, and today the challenges have become a critical concern for both developing and developed countries. The Geneva Challenge invites master’s students from all academic programs to provide helpful strategic recommendations.
Teams of 3-5 master’s students must submit an 8,000 word proposal on “The Challenges of Employment.” This proposal should:
- identify a challenge stemming from employment;
- construct an interdisciplinary analysis on how it affects different aspects of development in a specific (but transposable) context;
- propose innovation at the policy, practice, process or technology levels turning the challenge into development opportunity.
Registration closes May 25, and submissions are due July 31. Learn more.
