Background & Definition
The objective of ETH for Development (ETH4D) is to develop innovative solutions that effectively address the challenges of the global population and to educate the future leaders of sustainable development, who will work towards decreasing global poverty and inequality, as well as protecting our planet.

It must be a research question related to (a) the research interests of an ETH Zurich research group and (b) the current or future work of a private or public organisation. The challenges addressed must be relevant for poor people in low- and lower-middle income countries. Preference will be given to low-income countries.
