How does it work?

The project "After l'UNESCO, act!" aims at encouraging people of the UNESCO World Heritage site to stand up for their own territory. A great game will allow citizens, Municipalities, schools, commercial activities, recreational clubs, etc. to implement large or small projects aimed at offering tangible improvements for all.

The different entities will be organized into teams according to the Municipality in which they are located and the actions that will be taken will earn them points, both for each one of them and for the team. Should the project be voted online by other users, some extra points will be awarded. The Municipalities with the most points at the end of the game will win the final prize.

Points and badges

You can obtain points in several ways:

1. Points awarded due to real actions implemented on the territory and voted online.
You get points if:
• a project is published
• the project obtains preferences on the website
• every month experts will single out projects deserving of additional points.

2. Points awarded due to virtual actions implemented on the web and on social networks. Users participating as "citizens" can obtain additional points by making virtual actions.
You get points:
• Using the tools on the website to invite friends residing in the territory to join the game. In this case you get points for every friend who will sign up on the website
• Sharing the Manifesto "After l'UNESCO, act!" from the website www.ioagisco.it on your Facebook profile.

3. Points awarded due to Fans
Users who live outside of the competing Municipalities may participate in the game by registering with the profile "Fan" and voting on the projects. Fans can assign their preference for one or more projects (once for each). For each preference a point will be awarded.

In addition to the points, virtual badges will be assigned which can be viewed on the website on the page of your profile.
The points earned by the categories Schools, Citizens, Companies will be allocated both to those who implemented the project/action and to the relevant Municipality team.
In order to avoid favouring the Municipalities with more residents, points will be awarded to the Municipality team after alignment, according to a proportion calculated on the number of citizens residing in the Municipality.

The points will be awarded after the project is approved by the editorial staff of Io Agisco.
