The phenomenal energy behind this year's competition is continuing to resonate through exciting events and communications around the world.  This week we held our first ever Idea Lab in Benin, thanks to the incredible work of our Ideas for Action Africa Club.  This is one of three Idea Labs in Africa in our final month of the competition. Uganda and Ghana will also host events, so be sure to keep reading below to learn more details.

This week we are also excited to share our latest blog, featuring a Wharton student's local activation in her home country of India. Finally, this week's Social Spotlight is
United Nations Play from Estonia. Learn about their gamification idea below, and don't miss your chance to be considered for our next social spotlight of the week by sharing a picture, brief description, and/or video about your project on Twitter or Facebook with the hashtag #Ideas4Action2019.
