The wicked problem

The 2023 wicked problem is:

“Invent or innovate something that will change our world and leave a lasting impact”.

Inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 9 to build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialisation and foster innovation, students will explore how value is created, delivered and captured to tackle the wicked problem.
