About The Challenge.
From 9 October to 12 November, twelve teams of four young people will work on a real challenge submitted by a community organisation in their region. The solution is not decided in advance.
The young people listen, investigate, speak with stakeholders and connect different perspectives. With guidance, they develop a practical proposal for a local semi final.
The three city winners continue to the regional Grand Final. Young people gain practical experience and new skills. Schools connect education to the region. Community organisations gain fresh insight and stronger regional connections.
