        We've waited quite some time for the President's challenge, it's finally Here. This year's challenge:

REAWAKENING HUMAN POTENTIAL; building sustainable, scalable start-up enterprise which restore the rights and dignity of 10 million refugees by 2022.

The 2017 Hult Prize ''President's Challenge'' is ''Refugees- Reawakening Human Potential'' and will focus on restoring the rights and dignity of people and societies who may be, or are forced into motion due to social injustices, politics and economic pressures, climate change and war.

This year's challenge would also work to restore the rights and dignity of those currently living in informal/illegal settlements.

This year's aim is to reach 10M by 2022 and believe young people and their collective wisdom is the only way forward. This challenge was selected by President Bill Clinton and announced at the 2016 Hult Prize Finals and Awards program New York
