UC San Diego Global Social Innovation Challenge
Do you have a vision that will change the world?
Our world needs changemakers who create new models and work within new paradigms of sustainable change. Innovate with us to make this world a better place and participate in the Global Social Innovation Challenge (GSIC). The UC San Diego Global Social Innovation Challenge encourages students to conceive and cultivate social ventures that promote positive societal changes.
The GSIC is a social venture pitch competition that recognizes, resources and rewards student-led social ventures focused on sustainable change. Apply for the chance to pitch your venture to a panel of judges for up to $50,000 in funding and other resources at the 2022 Fowler Global Social Innovation Challenge finals on June 18th, 2022.
