Thousands of people from schools,
colleges, universities and workplaces
all over the country are being challenged
to explore practical solutions to help
combat climate change by participating
in the Climate Week Challenge.
The Challenge takes place in both a One
Day and a One Hour version.
The One Day Climate Week Challenge is run as a national competition, with a judging panel including:
- Liz Bonnin, presenter of BBC One’s Bang Goes the Theory
- Kate Humble, presenter of BBC Two’s Springwatch
- Sophia Myles, star of BBC One’s Spooks
- Bruce Parry, adventurer and presenter of BBC Two’s Tribe
- Cath Senior, Head of Understanding Climate Change at the Met Office
- Michaela Strachan, presenter of BBC Two’s Autumnwatch
There are eight age categories, with different levels of sophistication expected from the entries, but everyone – from primary pupils to senior managers – will be given the same core challenge. Everyone will share in tackling the same task.
The exact Challenge is kept as a secret until 9am on Monday 12 March 2012, when it will be revealed online and the competition begins!
It is designed for teams of four to six. Any school or organisation can enter any number of teams, for FREE!
No preparation is required. All that a team needs to participate is a table at which to work. It is a powerful way of developing creativity, teamwork, environmental knowledge, problem-solving and communications skills.
Challenging prizes for the Climate Week Challenge
Climate Week is pleased to announce “money-can’t buy” prizes for winners of the Climate Week Challenge. Three development workshops will be awarded to the three teams who produce the most outstanding winning entries for this year’s Climate Week Challenge. Run by professionals in roles such as product development or marketing, the workshops will enable each team to take its idea to the next level and will offer a fascinating insight into how ideas are developed and turned into reality in world-leading commercial environments. Two of the workshops are provided by Climate Week’s Headline Partner Tesco and the other one by its Supporting Partner Nissan, and will take place in Hertfordshire and Sunderland.
