Strategy 2025: Challenge

Olga Legacka, Strategy 2025 Taskforce

Join STRATEGY 2025 Challenge!

The world has become complicated, but isn't now the perfect time? We invite you to join the Strategy 2025 Challenge.

It’s a 'small steps' approach: short term micro-projects or tasks that can be executed by the national committee, local committee, regional initiative or cross-country ad hoc groups to contribute to achieving our Strategy 2025 goals.

Every second week we will announce challenges connected to Strategy 2025. Each group can undertake one, a few, or all of them. Once it’s completed, you inform us through the online form that it’s done, and the Strategy 2025 Taskforce will verify submissions.

For questions, please feel free to contact us via: strategy2025@iaeste.org

Ready to join the game?! Yes, you are!
