Tsinghua Santander 21st Century Global Challenges

The event is themed "Urban Sustainability" and encourages young students from around the world to propose design solutions for urban challenges in areas such as environment, energy, and transportation. In August 2016, 10 student teams from Spain, Brazil, the Netherlands, Poland, and China were selected for the finals and held a two-week workshop at Tsinghua University. With the support of the innovation and entrepreneurship platform and expert resources at Tsinghua University, participants learn design thinking methods, improve proposals, and hands-on operations, gradually transforming ideas about urban sustainability into reality.
