Dickinson Joins Together with Others
Campus EcoChallenge 2022
Join Dickinson's Center for Sustainability Education (CSE) for a 3-week sustainability-focused behavior change challenge from April 1st to April 22nd. The EcoChallenge provides a unique opportunity to put your sustainability skills into practice and includes a competition within Dickinson as well as a friendly competition amongst other universities or communities. EcoChallenge is a fun and social way to take measurable action on the issues you care about. With three weeks of commitment, learning and action can add up to a lifetime of positive change for you, others, and the planet!
We invite students, faculty, staff, alumni and families to make individual commitments and work towards a more sustainable lifestyle. EcoChallenge's platform is holistic, real-time, FREE, and allows participants to select the commitments they want to work on. EcoChallenge is 100% online, and offers unique, cutomizable opportunities for engagement. The combination of collective action, camaraderie, and friendly competition makes change a little easier — and a lot more fun. The EcoChallenge Kick-Off event will happen March 30, 2022 during Dickinson's participation in the Worldwide Teach-In for Climate Justice and will end in celebration on Thursday, April 21, 2022.
Explore the challenges and make your commitments by April 1, 2022!

Want to Challenge Dickinson?
We believe this behavior-based commitment campaign can have huge impacts in higher education and want to work with you. We invite any institution of higher education to create a team and join us in the 2022 Campus EcoChallenge. It doesn't matter if you have a team of 5 or 5,000! It would be fun to compete April 1-22, 2022. We will offer a virtual info session to orient schools to the process, best practices, and marketing tools.
