100k Actions Challenge

The purpose of this challenge is to empower you to be the most sustainable version of yourself and measure the impact you and all participants make. For this, we use the AWorld app. This app will guide you towards living sustainably every day through taking and logging your actions. Examples of actions are eating a plant-based meal or taking a 5-minute shower. Through participation, you also get the opportunity to learn about the SDG’s, receive tips and tricks on living a sustainable lifestyle, and join a community of like-minded people. Together, we aim for 100k actions during the challenge.

Join the challenge for free and become part of a community of people who act.
