The Design for Change contest believes that children can make a difference in the world. The contest rules, tools and platforms were designed to be accessible to children and teachers who have little or no previous exposure to design. In its first year, the contest reached over 60,000 students and drew over 1,500 submissions that sought to improve communities by addressing such issues as illiteracy, pollution and alcoholism.
