INTERNATIONAL, COMMUNITY, VALUES
ICVs are the International, Community and Values activities that are required in order to achieve your awards.
At Platinum level you are required to complete at least 2 ICV activities, at Diamond it's 4 and at King's 6 in total. These are accumulative as you progress through to the next level of award. You can only do a maximum of 2 activities per category.
As you progress through the award levels, we expect that you will put an increasing level of effort into your ICV activities. Examples of what we expect for the ICVs at each award level can be found below, however please don't feel restricted by these suggestions as other activities that fit within the categories can be approved by the ICV team.
To sign off your ICVs you will need to first email the ICV team with your idea to check that the activity you have planned is suitable.
Whilst completing the activity, make sure to take photos or create presentations that can be used to evidence what you have done.
You can check the 'badge' section on OSM to see if your ICV activity has been signed off and track your progress.
