Grand Challenge FAQs

The grand challenge is Aseel's initiative, a call to action to address urgent global issues, including humanitarian crises, education, hunger, women's rights, and child malnutrition, offering immediate responses and fostering collaboration to develop solutions. Grand challenges can often have supporting campaigns initiated by other organizations or individuals that help to raise awareness and support for tackling these pressing concerns.

Grand Challenges on Aseel work as large-scale, coordinated initiatives designed to address urgent humanitarian and social issues.They involve:

Defining a clear goal — identifying a pressing issue and setting measurable objectives
Launching a campaign+ — creating a Grand Challenge campaign on the Aseel platform
Collaborating with partners — inviting other organizations, individuals, or groups to support through their own campaigns or contributions
Fundraising — collecting donations through the platform to achieve the challenge's target
Transparency and reporting — providing regular updates, impact reports, and results to donors and the public

Only Aseel's core team has the authority to create, design, and publish a Grand Challenge on the platform. This ensures consistency in quality, alignment with organizational goals, and effective resource management.

The key difference between a campaign+ and a Grand Challenge on Aseel lies in their scope and purpose:

Campaign+: A focused fundraising initiative aimed at addressing a specific need or project. Campaign+ can be started by individuals, organizations, or entities to support a particular cause.
Grand Challenge: A large-scale initiative launched by Aseel to tackle urgent global issues such as humanitarian crises, education, hunger, women's rights, and child malnutrition. Grand Challenges often include multiple supporting campaigns and involve collaboration among various organizations and individuals to maximize impact.
