<h2>Key Features</h2>
<div class="grid">
<div class="card" style="background: white; border-color: var(--accent);">
<h3>ORCID Integration</h3>
<p>Participants log into the platform via <strong>ORCID</strong>— like a research passport with its own ID number and pages for "stamps"</p>
</div>
<div class="card" style="background: white; border-color: var(--accent);">
<h3>Trusted Data</h3>
<p>When a milestone is reached, such as a Master Birder certification or a Volunteer of the Year award, INDROVES adds the credential to the user's page and "stamps" it on their ORCID record.</p>
