Event Details

The ITU launched the Robotics for Good Youth Challenge in April 2024 to promote AI and robotics education among youth worldwide and to help ensure that no one is left behind in the robotics and AI revolution. it is inspired each year by a global challenge in which robots are developed to deliver innovative and practical solutions to real-world problems.

As an educational, platform-agnostic robotics championship, it gives participants full freedom to design, build, and program their robots without relying on a mandatory kit, while also allowing them to source hardware locally. In doing so, it aims to democratize access to robotics and AI education, help bridge the digital skills gap, and promote sustainable practices through the use of recycled materials, the reuse of robots across seasons, and the development of environmentally efficient robotic solutions.
