The Biomimicry Institute serves to “naturalize biomimicry in the culture by promoting the transfer of ideas, designs, and strategies from biology to sustainable systems design.” They host a few competitions and scholarship opportunities, including Global Design Challenge, in which a team of two to eight university students can submit their design idea. Background in biomimicry is not required, and this year’s challenge is to “create a nature-inspired innovation (a product, service, or system) that aligns with one or more of the Sustainable Development Goals, outlined by the United Nations while incorporating all three essential elements of biomimicry into your proposed solution.” The deadline to register is April 30, 2021, and all projects must be turned in by June 30, 2021.
