Build an application that supports UN Sustainable Development
Goals 7 and 11

We would like to improve our contribution to the UN
Sustainable Development goals.

We’d like your project to address 1 or both of these 2
goals, linking it to the roofing industry. Eg. a mobile app,
mockup or MVP that enables roof installers to capture data using
sensors in a phone, such as microphone, accelerometer or motion
sensing, camera, GPS, temperature, bluetooth, atmospheric
pressure, etc.

We’d like your project to show us the:

labels (text) shown to users who will be collecting the data,

metadata associated with the data collections,

destination of data after it is collected (web service, e-mail
address, messaging app e.g. WhatsApp, etc.)

Then make a video demo’ing your idea (2 mins max). It may
include images, charts, animations, data visualizations, live
footage, etc. It’s up to you!

Goal 7: Affordable and clean energy:

“Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and
modern energy for all”

Goal 11: Sustainable cities and communities:

“Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe,
resilient, and sustainable”
