OpenIDEO 2020 COVID-19 Global South Health and Livelihood Challenge

OpenIDEO has launched a call for innovative ideas to support low and middle income families across the world during the pandemic. The top ten ideas will receive prizes as well as additional investment potential.

• How could we help low and middle income families in the South to stay healthy while maintaining sustainable livelihoods during the COVID-19 pandemic?

OpenIDEO is an open innovation platform where people from all corners of the world collaboratively tackle some of the toughest global issues through launching Challenges, programs, and other tailored experiences.

A Challenge is a three-to-five month collaborative process that focuses attention on the topic and creates a space for community members to contribute and build off each other. This approach is modeled on IDEO's design thinking methodology.
