There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu
*********************************
Are you working on a project that can improve a social/environmental problem? Are you working on a project with a nonprofit and want to amplify their message? Submit your project for the Ideas to Serve Competition!
Your application package should include: an Executive Summary of the social issue area you are exploring and a short video pitch. For more details about the application process please review the Application section on the I2S website. Here you can also find resources and information about Prizes, judges, and the format of the Finals Poster Showcase through the video presentation guidelines.
Ideas 2 Serve focuses on the in-depth understanding of a social/environmental issue a student is passionate about, supporting an in-depth discovery of that particular problem.
Students who are interested in understanding complex problems and/or involved in community - based grassroots efforts to address such problems but don't have an "innovation" can be part of I2S - strengthening the "serve" component of it.
Participation in the Ideas to Serve Competition fulfills the Final Deliverable requirement for the SLS Innovating for Social Impact Program.
