ACTS
Ateneo Challenge for Transformational Sustainability (ACTS)
More than just a case competition, the Ateneo Challenge for Transformational Sustainability (ACTS) aims to cultivate a deeper understanding of corporate sustainability which fosters and inspires critical thinking, innovation, and empathy amongst the youth.
In partnership with the country’s leading corporations, the project consists of two main events: the ACTS Fair and a nationwide Corporate Sustainability (CS) case competition. Held inside the Ateneo, the ACTS Fair is a 2-day event held to promote the case competition where students will be able to interact and enjoy the different booths provided by the event’s sponsors. Additionally, a program including CS talks, musical performances, and sponsored promotions will be held and livestreamed for the students and viewers at home to enjoy. On the other hand, the nationwide case case competition serves as an avenue for college students to challenge their critical thinking skills in incorporating CS into proposing sustainable business solutions.
Through these initiatives, ACTS aims to spread awareness about corporate sustainability within the Ateneo while serving as an opportunity for college students to meaningfully and tangibly make a difference through their proposed sustainable solutions towards corporate leaders.
