The seventh edition of the Global Junior Challenge has received 413 from 42 countries, ranging from Albania to Uganda.
Along with Italy, 13 other European states are competing in the challenge, while 21 projects come from the world’s 12 poorest countries like Niger and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
There are 42 projects in the new "Applications for Civic and Social Innovation" category.
In the coming days, we will meet the protagonists of the finalist projects that will be in Rome from October 27 to 30 for the final event and the awards ceremony in the Rome Campidoglio.
