Q: Hi, I have been developing an idea for the last few months. Can I apply to the challenge with this idea?

A: Of course! Great that you have already been working on an idea. Hopefully that means that you have already done your research and have been refining it. We designed the briefing generator so that any idea that tackles the consequences of climate change can answer at least one of the briefs. Have a look at the briefs and see where your idea would best fit. It’s fine if it answers a couple of briefs, but do have a look at the each brief to see if your idea addresses some of the challenges and opportunities. There might be some hints to improve your idea within the briefs. Good luck!
