Robotics for Good Youth Challenge Grand Finale 2025

The Robotics for Good Youth Challenge Grand Finale is the prestigious culminating event of the Robotics for Good Youth Challenge 2024-2025, held at the AI for Good Global Summit 2025. Experience the excitement as teams from over 20 countries showcase their skills in this leading UN-based global educational robotics competition focusing on the critical area of disaster response. 

This global competition is open to any individual or team willing to design, build, and code a robot to address the proposed challenge of disaster response in the competition game board, contributing to the advancement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.  

  

WHAT IS THE ROBOTICS FOR GOOD YOUTH CHALLENGE? 

The Robotics for Good Youth Challenge is the leading UN-based educational robotics championship that every year is inspired on a global challenge in relation to which robots offer practical solutions to advance the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).     

Participants design, build and program a robot that completes a mission based on one of these goals. While learning robotics and coding, students gain more than just technical know-how, but also vital working-life and future skills, including but not limited to teamwork, problem-solving, project management, critical thinking, and information retrieval.    

The competition fosters free-software and hardware robotics, allowing unrestricted assembly and programming of the robots. It aims to promote inclusivity, enabling learning in robotics and coding regardless of gender, socio-economic status, or academic ability. Additionally, it encourages the use of recycled materials and environmentally friendly solutions, emphasizing the development of sustainable robots.
