Some criterias taken from Unite Ideas (Challenge proposal):

  1. The topic of the project must be related to one or multiple of the UN mandates, such as the Sustainable Development Goals, Human Right or Peace and Security.
  2. The project has to have a positive influence on a large group of people, communities or countries, meaning the project needs to be relevant and applicable to real life issues.
  3. All outcomes should be based on Open Source technologies, ensuring access to every interested party, creating more equal accessibility to high end technological solutions to real life issues. (I'm not sure if it means the same as "gnu license", but text to be adapted by someone who understands that thing :D )
