The World Bank Institute, the learning arm of the World Bank, has launched an online computer game called EVOKE, designed to get young people involved in finding solutions to urgent problems like hunger, poverty and education. The winners of the ten week game could be mentored by social innovators and business leaders and win a trip to a conference in Washington DC.

World Bank Institute in Washington, produced the game.
