Round 1 – Climate Change Presentation:

Students will be invited to attend a session all about the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with an industry leader from the UN, after which they will have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A, followed by a short quiz. The top 20 participants will move forward to the next round, based on their participation, quiz responses, as well as their initial audio submission.

Round 2 - Expert Insights:

This round is divided into two parts. In the first part, students delve deeper into the topic with the support of experts in related fields. The second part consists of an exciting climate-fresk for students to participate in. The top 10 students will be chosen based on their active involvement in the session’s collaborative tasks.

Round 3 - Media Training and Mock Majlis:
