The Sustainability Expedition Competition is held in Jerusalem for Students , grades 1-12.The goal is for students to leverage technology and use entrepreneurship for social good. Applicants submit original designs and projects revolving around sustainability and social good through technology and entrepreneurship. After the competition, all the finalists will display their projects at an exhibition.
Sustainiverse is a hub and a people incubator, aiming to alleviate poverty, slavery, and human-caused ‘climate change’ . This is done through free training in science, engineering, entrepreneurship and sustainability . The purpose of the program is to provide access to affordable housing, sustainable income and nutritious food.
Sustainiverse aims to create a franchise of hubs and a rev-share network with people in need and NGOs. This is done by leveraging unused rooftops,courtyards and walls to build vertical aquaponic and algae farms to grow vegetables, (edible) fish, and algae year-round. This can be easily maintained and taught to anyone. We also help student teams progress their sustainability or community good projects, such as micro-financed shipping container homes and a student competition, which the intern has the opportunity to help manage.
