A fun and inclusive 3-week competition

Whether participants walk to class, cycle to work, or just enjoy a stroll during their lunch break, every movement counts. Fun challenges and quizzes will also be integrated to spice up the experience and give the teams the chance to earn bonus points.
This year, the nine EU GREEN universities will compete in the challenge.
- 100 steps = 1 point
- 1 minute of cycling = 1 point
- 1 completed Kiplin session = 30 points
At the end of the challenge, 3 rankings will be established: individual ranking, team ranking, and university ranking (inter-entity competition).
