Educators for Change

What if solutions might be in the next few lines of code, a compelling
photo, or even a simple video game that can teach the world a lesson?

These small sparks set the world's imagination on fire and lead to change
that really matters. Imagine how your students can make a difference.

Technology can be the force that transforms great ideas into real-world
solutions to help the United Nations achieve the following Millennium
Development Goals:

.        Eradicate extreme poverty & hunger

.        Achieve universal primary education

.        Promote gender equality/empower women

.        Reduce child mortality

.        Improve healthcare and combat diseases

.        Ensure environmental sustainability

.        Develop global partnership

People are starving. Diseases ravage communities. Basic education is out of
reach for too many people. Dangerous shifts in the environment affect
millions as countries struggle to develop in sustainable ways. It seems
overwhelming - but we can't throw up our hands and give up. 

As an agent of change on your campus, join us to empower students to step up
to the challenge!

technology competition focused on finding solutions to real-world issues.
