We wish to formally introduce the Edupro Global Green Talent Awards 2026, an international, sustainability-focused initiative organised by Edupro UK in association with the University of Leeds. The programme is designed to encourage students and young innovators to develop practical, innovative, and impactful solutions to contemporary environmental challenges.
The initiative aims to promote sustainability awareness, collaborative learning, critical thinking, and responsible innovation among students from diverse academic disciplines. The programme is open to students and young innovators aged 16–32 from any discipline, with participation offered completely free of charge. Teams must consist of 3–5 members, and each team is required to have one designated mentor. Eligible teams will compete for international recognition, mentorship opportunities, and professional credentials.
Comprehensive information regarding the programme objectives, eligibility criteria, participation guidelines, and timelines is available at the following link:
