青年“生态创想·绿色行动”环保大赛（大赛）由中新天津生态城管理委员会（生态城管委会）和中新天津生态城投资开发有限公司（生态城合资公司）联合主办。大赛的前身是2011年由生态城合资公司发起主办的年度公益赛事——“全国大学生‘生态创想·绿色行动’环保大赛”。大赛自创始以来，已连续举办八届，共收到来自中国70 座城市202 所院校及机构所提交的750 个富有创意和实践性的作品。大赛旨在鼓励青年人积极进行环保领域的创新和创业，为生态城市建设探寻切实可行的绿色及智慧解决方案。同时，也持续号召青年人积极践行可持续发展的生态生活方式。该赛事顺应了国家提出的“大众创业、万众创新”的倡导，符合生态城“国家绿色发展示范区”的城市定位，不仅体现了生态城管委会和生态城合资公司在积极履行社会责任方面的不断努力，也突显了生态城作为生态城市建设先行者和环保理念倡导者、践行者的作用。今年大赛的项目征集将围绕“
生态+智慧”两大领域。
The Youth "Eco-Innovation · Green Action" Competition (Competition) is jointly organised by the China-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City Administrative Committee (ECAC) and the Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City Investment and Development Co., Ltd. (SSTEC). It was previously known as the National Varsity "Eco-Innovation · Green Action" Competition and it was initiated by SSTEC in 2011. Eight consecutive editions of the Competition have been held since its inception in 2011. To date, the Competition has received a total of 750 projects from 202 institutions and professional organisations in 70 cities across China. The Competition aims to encourage youth to actively innovate and explore careers in the field of environmental protection, and to uncover feasible green and smart solutions for the development of eco-cities. At the same time, the Competition also calls on youths to actively lead a sustainable eco-lifestyle. The Competition adhered to the State’s advocacy of "Mass Entrepreneurship and Innovation" and Eco-City’s urban positioning of a "National Green Development Demonstration Zone", reflecting ECAC’s and SSTEC’s continuous efforts in active implementation of social responsibility and highlighting the role of Eco-City as a pioneer in eco-city development and an advocate and practitioner of environmental protection. The project entries for this year's Competition will focus on two themes - ecological development and smart development.
