How Does It Work?

After students have completed the Day of AI lessons, it’s time to use what they’ve learned to come up with an idea that tackles climate one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

In pairs, students complete a workbook which helps step through creating a problem statement, developing and refining their idea, and finally creating a short video explaining their idea.

The Student Challenge competition closes on 25 September 2026.
