Communities can adapt to challenges and grow stronger together. I will spend 10 minutes learning about how communities prepare for and respond to change, and how collective action builds resilience.

Every community around the world faces challenges—from natural disasters to economic changes—and find ways to adapt and thrive. I will spend 10 minutes exploring stories of community resilience and reflect on what lessons I can bring to my own community.

I’ll take a short pre-survey to share what motivated me to join — and earn 15 points! (If I already took the survey by email, I’ll just mark this action complete to get my points.)

Local events such as farmers' markets, festivals, or community meetings like town halls are great ways to feel part of a community. I will attend 1 community events to connect with others and learn more about my area.

Bees and other pollinators are vital to ecosystems and agriculture. I will spend 10 minutes learning how to support local pollinators and take at least one action—such as planting native flowers or avoiding pesticides—to help sustain resilient ecosystems and harvests.

Biodiversity hotspots are places with many unique species that are also at risk. I will spend 5 minutes learning about one hotspot and reflect on why protecting it matters for resilience.
