They became familiar with the crucial concepts of viz. Last-mile logistics within urban planning for future cities, assessment of impact using Designs Methodology, Systems Thinking, and holistic measurement of impact. They learned how to create social media campaign strategies for Global Goals with the help of Canva and WordPress. The Young Innovators also met the CXOs of three inspirational businesses, StormiePoodle, Aqua-Q, and WeCycle, where they got the chance to discuss real-life scenarios and challenges when working with the SDGs in the private sector.
