Re: Announcing the Solution Search: Water Pollution and Behavior Change Contest; Deadline 10th Jan 2020

This is an interesting contest, posted here by an organization that hasn't had any dealings with SuSanA yet (as far as I know) - they are called Solution Search and Centre for Behaviour and the Environment.
Note: deadline is in 3 days on 10 January.

I took a look at their FAQs which is at the bottom of their page: solutionsearch.org/contests/water-pollution-behavior-change

Who is eligible to enter the Solution Search contest?
Any organization or institution worldwide is eligible (e.g. city government, business, non-profit, university, etc.). Individuals are not eligible to enter.

How do I know which behavior lever I am utilizing?
The behavior levers oftentimes work together, so there may be multiple levers at play in your intervention. For example, your program may be motivating people to abide by an anti-littering law ( rules and regulations ) by making it socially unacceptable to litter ( social influences ).
Explore behavior.rare.org to learn more about each lever or download our guide,  Levers of Behavior Change: Principles and Strategies .

If anyone is planning to enter a sanitation behaviour change project into this contest, I wish you good luck!

Regards,
