Description

Lead 2030 Challenge for SDG 6 – Supported by RB

By 2030, it is estimated that the world will only have 60% of the water it needs. The goal for this challenge is to create change by developing the right educational and/or technological tools for responsible water consumption in the home. There should be a focus on families, where water consumption per household is at its highest.

More Details

This challenge seeks to support initiatives that:

Educate households especially in countries and regions at greatest risk to the consequences of water scarcity.
Drive innovative ways to reduce water within households. This can be done through focused behavioural change methods or technological innovation – the key is that it must allow for practical execution and be scalable and accessible.
Ensure proposals are not just developed for short term benefits but hold sustainable long-term objectives too. These are changes that should be passed on to future generations.

Opportunity Focus Areas:

Water scarcity.
Developing economies.
International development.
Global population.

Required Languages
