Community Challenges

Participate in Community Challenges  
Purpose
The Community Challenge serves as an opportunity for community members to explore an idea or question in their own lives by working with a particular question presented by the leadership team over a period of three months. 
Each Community Challenge utilizes a different communication means—such as video, music, art, creative fiction and non-fiction, or community journals—and will be a way for individuals to explore and share the topic both in the WeStrive community network and in their own global communities.  
 
How to Participate
Each season, the WeStrive Leadership Council will announce the Community Challenge in the WeStrive eNews. Members can then submit their responses to the designated space for others to view, consider and enjoy.

Community Challenges 
September 2009 Community Challenge
September’s Challenge is inspired by Dan-Felix Müller’s work around “Ideas for the Future.” These can be found on WeStrive’s Community Challenge page, as well as on the WeStrive Channel. We invite community members to take out their video cameras and to ask others what their ideas are for the future. How will we live in the future? Who will we be? What will be important to us? What will the future look like? Explore the concept of “Ideas for the Future” in the most creative way possible and share that with the WeStrive community. We will reflect on these in the October eNews issue, as well, and the Leadership Council will highlight some of its favorites!
