You can also participate as a school/college. Please contact your network partner for the same.

No, there is no registration fee. This is a free challenge designed to encourage as many young individuals as possible.

There is no compulsion to complete every level of the challenge. Even completing level one and reducing your own plastic consumption has an impact. However, we encourage you to go through the entire challenge to ensure you are making maximum impact to fight plastic pollution.

There is no scoring for the first level. However, you need to score at least 50% of the maximum score alloted to the second and third levels. Your score shall be updated within 10 days of submission of all activities of the respective level.

Apart from the satisfaction of having made a huge impact in reducing single-use plastic consumption, you will receive a certificate from the United Nations Environment Programme, recognizing your participation and on completion of all 3 Levels you will get the Tide Turners badge.
