About the G4C Student Challenge

The G4C Student Challenge invites participants worldwide to design games inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with this year’s themes including:

• Outplay Hunger – Addressing food security and sustainability

• Nurture Yourself With Nature – Exploring the connection between well-being and the environment
