Medal Requirements

Complete all requirements and check them off as you go. Your parent will verify your work.

1

Issue Research Report

Choose a real-world issue you care about. Research it using at least 3 credible sources. Write a 1–2 page report covering: the problem, who is affected, current responses, and why more action is needed.

  • Choose an issue you genuinely care about — your passion will show in your campaign.
  • Cite at least 3 credible sources. Wikipedia is a starting point, not a citation.
2

Audience Analysis

Identify your target audience. Who are they? What do they currently believe? What motivates them? What barriers exist to changing their behaviour? Write a 1-page audience profile.

  • Talk to at least one real member of your target audience before writing this.
  • Understanding your audience is more important than having a perfect message.
3

Campaign Design

Design your persuasive campaign. Choose your medium (poster, video, speech, social media post, newsletter, or other). Create a draft and explain your creative choices: why this medium, this message, this tone.

  • Any medium is accepted — choose what you are best at.
  • Your creative rationale is as important as the campaign itself.
4

Live Presentation

Present your campaign to a real audience of at least 5 people. Record the presentation or collect written feedback from at least 3 audience members.

  • Your audience can be classmates, family, a community group, or an online audience.
  • A video recording of the presentation is the easiest form of evidence.
5

Impact Measurement

Measure the impact of your campaign. Did attitudes change? Did anyone take action? Use a simple before/after survey, observation notes, or follow-up conversations to gather evidence.

  • Even small or mixed results are accepted — honest measurement is the goal.
  • A simple 3-question survey before and after is enough.
6

Reflection & Next Steps

Write a final reflection: What worked? What would you do differently? What did you learn about persuasion, your audience, and yourself? What is your concrete next step?

  • Include specific lessons learned — not just general statements.
  • Your next step must be concrete and actionable.
