Your council or National may be able to provide clarity. As written, my guess is that the issue has to effect more than one country, but the project only has to benefit one country. IE Deforestation is a problem in many countries. 

Good way to think of it 

Looking for guidance for what is entailed for a project to address “a conservation need common to more than one country.”?  That is the wording for the Scouts BSA World Conservation award.

Im  trying to not see the project as a cross border effort. 
Theoretically if a scout plants a tree in Texas that will eventual help Canada. Right? 
if a scout helps with an erosion control project that helps a waterway then eventually that helps the world by Maintaining top soil and plant growth and the water cycle, right?

or is it that the same problem must exist in more than one country - air quality, water quality - but the project can address it in one country  

anyway thoughts on what “common to more than one country means.”

thanks!
