The Hackathon "Euromed Sustainable Impact Challenge", organized from January 19 to 21, 2022 by Euromed University of Fes and Royal Air Maroc, concluded with the announcement of the winning project "Green Wings." 

Green Wings is a mobile application created by a group of 8 students in Business, Artificial Intelligence and Design at UEMF. This application aims to highlight RAM's CSR actions and instill them into employees' habits through three main components: carpooling, catering, as well as eco-scoring and eco-ranking.

- Carpooling will help minimize the carbon footprint. 

- The catering component will allow employees to confirm or decline their presence at the company restaurant the next day, as well as choose the foods that would make up their menu in order to avoid food waste. 

- The eco-scoring is a score calculated based on 3 factors: internal and external water and electricity consumption among the different RAM employees, the level of involvement in carpooling and RAM's eco-responsible activities, and finally volunteering. This score will lead to an eco-ranking that will elect the best environmentalist, creating an atmosphere of competition and play and allowing to combine business with pleasure. 

All these activities will bring significant savings for RAM, savings that will then be used in a rewarding system for the various eco-responsible employees.

For reminder, 13 teams, made up of UEMF students, pitched their projects before the jury during the grand final. All projects demonstrated inventiveness and adherence to the principles and practices of sustainable development, socially, environmentally and economically.
