What does an equitable future look like when it comes to education? How could the next multi-million dollar XPRIZE competition pull that equitable future forward?
WHAT IS THE IDEAS COMPETITION?
The Racial Equity Alliance is proud to introduce the Ideas Competition, presented by Intel. Up to 10 wedding ideas will be selected in winners will share a total prize purse of $50,000. Your idea could be the spark for future XPRIZE competitions with the goal of advancing educational equity in the United States.
Education is a fundamental driver of change. It is an active investment in human capital. When done intentionally and equitably, education promotes greater public health outcomes, increases creativity, boosts economic advancement, and plays a critical role in eliminating historic inequities within society.
WHAT KIND OF IDEAS CAN I SUBMIT?
Competitors in the Ideas Competition will be asked to describe an educational challenge specific to their community and/or the US at large and explain how their competition idea could help drive positive and impactful solutions to that key challenge.
10 winning ideas will receive $5,000. Winners will also have the opportunity to showcase their ideas to Alliance sponsors, partners, and members of the Brain Trust. One of the winning ideas may even become the next XPRIZE Competition.
The Ideas Competition deadline to register is July 9, 2022. Winners will be announced in August of 2022.
