Student groups selected from the partner universities of the 'UK/Viet Nam Season 2023 project: Embedding Climate change and Sustainability in Healthcare Curricula' will present their original ideas on mitigating the negative effects of climate change and promoting sustainability in their healthcare professions. The preliminary round will be organised by each university to select the best team to compete in the final contest.
The Grand Final will gather the best student teams and academics from all the partner universities, businesses, and the public to share ideas and raise awareness on the impacts of climate change and sustainability on Healthcare professions in both Viet Nam and the UK. The pitching will be done in a ‘shark tank’-like format and judged by both university lecturers and business representatives to decide the winners and grant opportunities for the realisation of the ideas.
