#IdeasChangeLives

We believe anyone could have an idea that has the power to change lives. No matter who they are or where they are.

#IdeasChangeLives is our global innovation challenge to find digital solutions to some of the world’s greatest problems.

We’re looking for people with a fresh, entrepreneurial spirit and a big idea that has the potential to make a positive impact for communities across the globe.

The winning pitch will get £20,000 to invest in their idea, as well as mentorship and support from the British Council for a full year.

Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
