Burjeel Holdings and Saïd Business School at the University of Oxford have launched the Climate Change Challenge - a global competition for high school students (aged 15 to 18) and teachers.

The challenge invites young people and educators across the world to contribute their ideas and take action towards creating solutions to the greatest and most complex threat to humanity: the climate crisis.

The finalists will be invited to present their solutions to a distinguished audience in Dubai, during COP28 in December, and the winners will be invited to the United Kingdom where there will be given the unique opportunity to take part in a tailored climate change programme at Saïd Business School in Oxford next year, led by world-leading academics. For finalists and winners, all expenses will be covered by Burjeel Holdings and Oxford Saïd. They will also gain access to a vibrant community of influential entrepreneurs and thought leaders in innovation and social impact from around the globe.
