Plan B

Growing Big Ideas in 60 Seconds!

 

If the big CHALLENGE is not your thing; if you just want to get started in exploring your ideas; if you want to take things on a smaller scale but you have huge passion and are ready to get involved, Consider Plan B—“Big ideas in 60 seconds.” Think of it as a public service announcement bringing awareness to a problem or issue you care about. This is open to ALL students in the Central Okanagan. On your own or with a group of likeminded people (Max. 6) give us your best ideas for Sustainability!

In a one minute creative video:

  • Tell us the issue you are concerned about and why you think it’s a problem. (Back it up with factual statements)

  • Demonstrate which Global Goal # this issue is related to

  • Show us your idea for addressing the problem.

  • Have a “call to action” so viewers can do something about it

    Along with your Video:

  • Attach a short write (up to one page) up that includes: a title, your names, your Global Goal #, a description of your video and why you think the issue is important. *Find a locally based Community Partner Organization that shares your cause and learn about the work they are doing and share it here. Let them know about your idea and email them. *They could be the recipients of any funding you receive. See list our of Partners HERE or choose your own.

Submit application online by the deadline listed on calendar. Top videos will be publicly showcased. Small financial awards may be given to some artists to either donate to their Community Partner Organization or to further their cause.

"When I began this challenge, I was unaware of the significance this video would make on myself and the community. It gave me the opportunity to unite so many intelligent, strong, confident girls in my school that I otherwise would not have had the chance to connect with. I encourage all young activists to take on this challenge not only to inspire others but to show yourself the impact you are capable of making." Emma Treherne
