We are so excited to be able to offer you this unique opportunity to compete on a global level and win up to $5000 in funding - this is one not to miss! Excitingly, the Top 10 teams in the UK will each receive £200!
Learn for change with AIG offers a unique opportunity for Enactus students to reach, educate and empower local urban and rural communities to build resilient systems to withstand, adapt to, and recover from adversity. All you need to do to take part in the competition is create an impactful and creative 77-second video that raises awareness around your project and the needs it seeks to tackle! Enactus teams from the UK will have the opportunity to compete against teams from Canada and Puerto Rico!
The great news is the timing could not be any better! You already have a video on your project that you used for the National Competition!
