100In1Day is an annual celebration of active citizenship, where we collectively celebrate what makes our communities great, and implement ideas about how we can work together towards a better city and a better world.
Join the movement100In1Day began in 2012 as a movement from Bogotá, Colombia where inspired citizens sought to instigate change in their communities through grassroots activism to improve their city and form connections between people. Since the movement’s founding, residents of cities around the world have embraced 100In1Day as an annual opportunity to recognize the power we have to dream of a better world through citizen-led actions.
The actions of inspired citizens form the backbone of 100In1Day as a social-transformative model seeking to redefine cities by bringing people together in public spaces. These actions range from celebrations of the small things in communities that provide vitality, to actions coming from a more critical perspective that identify opportunities for change. Actions can assume diverse forms approaching topics from different perspectives relating to environment, culture, and society, but derive their inspiration from a common desire to create a positive impact at a local scale.

Why 100 actions?
When 100In1Day was initially conceived the original plan was to host a handful of actions. The movement quickly decided to embrace the idea of fostering widespread action. As such, the number 100 symbolizes the possibility to create larger transformative change through a network of smaller interventions working towards community goals.
While the number of actions that are realized may be less or more than the envisioned 100, it is the quality of these actions that defines the successes of 100In1Day. On the day of 100In1Day the combined scale of all these actions presents a strong platform advanced by active citizens to advocate for improvements to their communities and city.
What does it mean to be an Active Citizen?
Active citizenship is a concept that describes a practice of civic engagement that is more than simply voting. Practicing active citizenship entails recognizing the individual’s co-responsibility to their city, community, and self in order to form a citizen culture of ownership in public spaces. Active citizens are ones who strive to improve the places they live by collaborating with other members of their community towards the goal of generating positive community impacts through locally led and initiated interventions.
We can create a change every day, as small as it is!
The actions generated in 100In1Day are always focused on creating a positive change on the city. These can impact different topics such as: environmental, social, cultural, education, citizen culture and others.
The starting point to develop them is the realization of situations with tension or a sense of displacement that have the potential to be highlighted, transformed, strengthen, or improved.
