Participants get access to coaches from the business world and academia who can help develop their ideas.<\/p>\n<p>This year it challenged students to develop an urban farm concept that ensures year-round sustainable and affordable food production but also generates income for the local residents of Ward 7, a low-income neighbourhood in Washington DC, USA.<\/p>\n<h1>Students&#8217; challenges at Wageningen University &amp; Research<\/h1>\n<p>The university organises challenges for students worldwide and supports their own students who participate. They&#8217;re a great opportunity for students to work on real-life problems with people from all over the world. It gives the students a platform to showcase their talent and sometimes even land their dream job. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wur.nl\/en\/Education-Programmes\/Current-Students\/Student-Challenge.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Visit the WUR website<\/a> for more information about these challenges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From November 260 student from 70 universities in 19 countries worked hard to develop an inclusive design for Washington D.C.\u2019s East Capitol Urban Farm.
