Project background.

With the aim of achieving our objective “One Planet – Zero Hunger,” Omdena Munich is partnering with Welthungerhilfe in the context of innolab2023. The global rise in hunger, coupled with environmental degradation, climate change, social inequalities, and conflicts, underscores the urgent need for action. This collaboration with Welthungerhilfe aims to harness innovative thinking and creative solutions to address these pressing challenges and drive positive change.

The problem.

In the context of innolab 2023, our focus is directed toward addressing the challenges faced by a specific team grappling with a multifaceted issue encompassing drought, limited water accessibility, and food insecurity. This collaborative endeavor aims to leverage innovative solutions to alleviate the adverse impacts of these interconnected challenges and pave the way for sustainable outcomes within this team’s environment. Through the application of cutting-edge technologies and collective expertise, we endeavor to contribute to a more resilient future, where the vulnerabilities of drought, water scarcity, and food insecurity are mitigated effectively.
