The challenge or “Call for Solutions” aims to identify ideas generating joint income opportunities for refugees and host communities and to develop them further in a Design-Thinking Lab in Rwanda.

 

Participation requires:

  • ‘Any solution that creates business opportunities for refugees and host communities can be submitted, as long as it has been tested and implemented elsewhere, no matter where, and when’.
  • NGO, a private individual or a company can participate in the solution.
  • Submission Timeline : from September 1st until October 31st, 2018.
  • The winners will receive prize money of €1,500.
  • If the prototype is successful, GIZ will provide support to scale the solution globally and the winner can become a remote solution-advisor.
