SHORT DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTION – This description must contain the type of action (Individual, Informal Group or Organisation) and the place (region/country/city), and link(s) to the action (not mandatory but strongly recommended).

  • If you are not the owner of the action/project: A short description presenting the key points of the action is enough (maximum 500 words).

  • If you are the owner of the action/project: Your submission must also contain the impact of your action. For instance, i) The number of people impacted (1 person, a family, 20 people, a whole community (precise the number when possible) ii) The longevity of the project (short, medium, and long-term impact, specifying numbers and possible timelines if possible), and iii) The funding sources (Community sponsored, Partner(s), individual(s), Self-sponsored or other sources of funding)

    Example: The initiative led by a group of friends who decided to take action already distributed 500 basic hygiene kits (500 people impacted) for homeless people in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The initiative is financed by its own funds and donations from friends (self-sponsored and partners) who also want to support the initiative. Kits are arranged with the help of at least 10 volunteers. They are very excited about the positive impact of the initiative, and plans are for expanding to reach at least 1.500 people by the end of 2022 (short and long-term impact).
