How to earn your badge:

1. Identify need. Investigate what issues and challenges exist in your chosen community – it could be local, national or international.

2. Plan action. Decide what issue your section should take action on and what you want to change. Talk to your section about what actions you would like to take.

3. Take action over three months. You should:

   1. spend at least four hours personally taking action on your chosen issue. You can achieve more impact by spreading your time out over a month, instead of doing it all in one go.
   2. involve others in the action. Work in a team with your section and preferably people in the community you are trying to help.

4. Learn and make more change. Discuss with your section what you’ve learned, how you have made people’s lives better, how taking action has developed you, and what you could do to help even more people in your chosen community.

5. Tell the world. Help other people to understand why the issue you took action on is important, what you did and how they can help.
