What if the solution to Cebu's biggest challenges is already out thereโ€”waiting to be discovered, supported, and scaled?

We are looking for ideas and initiatives that can help address:

๐ŸŒŠ Flood resilience and disaster preparedness
๐Ÿ’ง Water security
โ™ป๏ธ Waste management and circular economy
โšก Renewable energy transition
๐ŸŒฑ Climate resilience and sustainable livelihoods

Because the future is built by those who choose to solve problems together.

2 days remain. โณ

If you have been refining your idea, now is the time to move it into the submission form. If you have been waiting until you feel ready, this is as ready as it gets!
