Challenge for Change is a program by Misk Foundation and the Gates Foundation that empowers Saudi youth-led nonprofits and social enterprises to build solutions for pressing development challenges. Fifteen initiatives competed across three tracks, Technology, Environment, and Health and Quality of Life, through seven weeks of mentorship and training at Misk City, with up to SAR 3 million in funding for the winning solutions.
The series promo captures the energy and ambition of the teams as they move from an idea to measurable impact. In the words of Misk CEO Dr. Badr Al Badr, the program is “more than just a competition”.
Directed by Jamal Jameel and produced by Engine Film x Hayz.
