To help students better understand the themes and make progress in the competition, we have compiled a collection of sample problem statements for the AAKRUTI Global 2026 contest.ย
ย
We encourage you to refer to these problem statements for Inspiration and to come up youโre your innovative ideas to tackle the challenges which comes under these themes.
ย
๐๐ As mentioned, these problem statements are provided to give you a reference, hence do not just take these problem statement as your product design project for participation. If any team is using these problem statement directly without any changes, they will get less weightage by jury member during evaluation. Hence please use these problem statements as inspiration and come up with your own creative solution. ๐๐ ย
