Submit your challenge to CityLAB

We are currently matching projects that will start in September 2024.

CityLAB challenges are:

1. Directly related to City priorities, strategies, or plans.

2. Mutually beneficial to the city and students by providing value for staff and excellent learning opportunities for students.

3. Solving problems both big and small by encouraging innovative and sustainable solutions.

Our challenge submission process allows for City staff as well as instructors to submit an idea for a challenge. All CityLAB projects require a City of Hamilton staff member as well as an instructor working together on a project.

After you submit your challenge idea, we will share it with our network to help find a good match for the project. We will accept applications from interested faculty and staff. If you have a project in mind but need a longer timeline to prepare, we’re happy to accept your challenge now and work on finding a suitable partner.
