GenAI for Good Challenge (2026 Cycle)

This global challenge invites teams to develop generative AI solutions for real-world deployment in partnership with UN agencies. Built on the open-source GENIE.AI framework, the program includes:

• Three use cases tied to SDGs: • Health risk prevention in The Gambia • Agricultural support in Lesotho • Climate resilience for farmers in Bangladesh
• Prototyping and mentorship from IEEE and ITU experts
• Deployment support from UN agencies (WHO, FAO, WMO)
• Structured phases: application, evaluation, prototyping, and implementation

• Open to teams of innovators, researchers, and technologists
• Must propose a solution aligned with one of the three use cases
• Preference for youth-led or community-based teams
• Must commit to prototyping and potential deployment
• English proficiency require
