THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE

INTRODUCTION The World Scout Moot (WSM) is organized every four years by the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM). This year’s WSM is the 13th since the first one in 1931 and will be hosted by the Kenya Scouts Association starting July 27th to August 7th, 2010. It is important to note that this is first time that this event is being hosted in Africa. It is expected to bring together 3000 participants, Senior Scouts, young leaders and staff from all over the world. The theme and slogan for the Moot is very symbolic. The following is a summary.

THEME: “ULTIMATE DISCOVERY” The symbolic background of the Rover Scout Section is “ROUTE” Young people today find themselves in an interconnected and first changing world. The threats to peace, environmental degradation, epidemics such as HIV &AIDS, productivity and standards of living are unfolding during their life time. The economic melt-down is affecting the livelihood of young people all over the world. Yet the political system, cultural, societal and gender norms have confined them within invisible boundaries thus curtailing the exploitation of their full potential as members of the new interlinked world.

SLOGAN: IT’S TIME……. 

…… to enable Scouts from all over the world to come together during the 13World Scout Moot in Kenya where the remains of the Founder and Chief Scout of the World, Lord Baden-Powell lies at rest in Nyeri.

……for the young people to discover their full potential, serve the community and have fun with purpose, as they enjoy the Kenyan beaches, culture, safari and adventure. ……it’s time to come to Africa. …... it’s time for Kenya.

THE SCOUT MOVEMENT The Scout Movement is a voluntary, non political and educational movement for young people open to all without distinction of origin, race, gender, creed or ethnic /tribal background in accordance with the purpose, principles, and method as conceived by the Founder of Scouting Lord Baden-Powell of Gilwell. 13th World Scout Moot

THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE MOOT PROGRAMME The Moot Programme will consist of two parts; Expeditions in three expedition centres (where some activities will be off-site) followed by four days of activities at the main camp-site, Rowallan, situated in Nairobi. Expeditions – these will be located in the three Expedition Centers which will enable participants to experience different parts Kenya. The participants will have an opportunity to explore the physical area around the centres and visit local communities. 1. Expedition centre 1: Machakos Scout Camp 2. Expedition centre 2: Kaiyaba Scout Camp 3. Expedition centre 3: Embu Show Ground After the opening ceremony in Rowallan National Camp, Moot participants will depart to the three Expeditions Centers where they will be received with a warm Kenyan welcome and traditional hospitality. Exciting and challenging activities such as rock climbing, mountaineering and community service in schools, hospitals and homes awaits the participants. During the adventure in the wilderness the participants will learn how to navigate in the thick and lovely montane forests of Karemeri and the Rocky Lukenya Hills and experience life in rural Kenya. Programme of activities in each of the Expedition Centers are very exciting and full of fun. Educational objectives are designed in each of the journeys in the center. On-site activities - some activities will also take place in the Expedition Centres. These are camp based activities like sports and games. The “Global Development Village” is an on-site activity that will take place at the main camp-site at Rowallan. THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE (GDV)

The Global Development Village was first introduced at the 17th World Jamboree in the Republic of Korea in 1991. The World Scout Jamboree is a large camp for young people aged 14-18 from all over the world. Since its introduction, the concept has evolved, moving from the status of a free-time activity to that of a module programme in all the World Scout Youth Events – Jamborees and Moots. A GDV is an educational activity which allows young people to develop awareness of the situation in the world today, in an attractive and dynamic way, in relation to a number of topics. The participants are invited to consider what this means for them in their community and what action they can take now or in the future to help create a better world. It has best been explained with the words global, development and village

THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES OF THE GLOBAL DEVEOLOPMENT VILLAGE We have identified themes to be discussed in the Global Development Village and under each broad subject there are topics and sub topics. This will aim at making scouts international citizens by identifying their niche in the global world, tackle challenges in the world, getting practical solutions to the challenges and being committed to take actions in their countries. THEME ONE: PEACE & CONFLICT RESOLUTION 

Conflict Resolution

Poverty

Elimination of Prejudice

THEME TWO: ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION & MANAGEMENT Environment is simply a term that encompasses all living and non-living things that occur naturally on earth. Young people will have the opportunity to explore the following issues. 

Climate change and energy

Waste management

Energy

THEME THREE: GENDER & HUMAN RIGHTS Human rights refer to the "basic rights and freedoms” to which all humans are entitled. Young people will be have the opportunity to explore the following issues 

Gender equity

Civil rights- refugees,

Diversity – discrimination, xenophobia

THEME FOUR: HEALTH Health is “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. We only live once and hence the need to take good care of our bodies and those that we care for. The topics for discussion are as follows:  

Physical and mental diseases - psychosocial lifestyle diseases – obesity, diabetes, sports & games Sexuality and STIs including HIV &AIDs - Prevention, care & support 13th World Scout Moot

THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE THEME FIVE: YOUTH PARTICIPATION AND EMPOWERMENT This subject has been debated over the years in the media and many other forums. However, there are challenges facing the youth and, definition notwithstanding, these issues have to be addressed so that we may achieve a harmonious society. These challenges will be solved if young people are lead by people who uphold core values in society. Over the years it has been a notion that most high powered positions are a “no-go zone” for youth and we need to change this. There are many unemployed young people out there as a result of poor economies, dramatic increases in population growth, advancement in technology and medication, rapid expansion of formal education and these have affected the society and the economy. Topics for discussion are as follows. 

Livelihood

Service(Volunteering)

Scout of the World Award Discovery

FAITH AND BELIEFS Duty to God is basically the adherence to spiritual principles, loyalty to the religion that expresses them and acceptance of duties resulting there from. Scouts will get a chance to learn more about the different religions in the world and discuss topics in the context of a religious belief. 

Beliefs and Rituals in different world religions

Opportunities for inter-religious dialogue.

GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE PROGRAMME There are two types of activities in the GDV:  Workshops where participants will do activities on a topic over a period of 2-3 hours  Interactive stands where participants will interact with experts and learn on the issues discussed above.

THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE INTERACTIVE STAND An interactive stand is a learning forum where participants will be challenged on the above issues, get assignments and may be asked to make posters, solve puzzles or write an essay, do a game or a manual activity depending on the need. Participants will take 10 - 15 minutes in a stand and a stand can take up to 20 participants at any one given time. The following are the features: 

Interactive stands are a one on one interaction with the experts.

Participants will choose an activity from the interactive stand.

Interactive stands offer a relaxed atmosphere where participants have a look here, have a taste there and yet try something out in another one.

Interactive stands will offer a village scenario where more questions can be asked by participants to supplement workshops.

A single visitor can get to an interactive stand.

Interactive stands will be more detailed in a manner where a specific project can be demonstrated on how it can be implemented in various regions or countries.

In order to reach many young people, interactive stands are open to public, guests, visitors and participants alike.

Interactive stands will be there throughout the day (or night) for the GDV days.

Every organization that decides to run an interactive stand is responsible to design, organize it and provide the core staffing. Basic stand equipment will however be provided (see list). An international service team member will assist the expert to run the interactive stand, if requested in advance. WORKSHOPS The workshops are meant to provide participants with an opportunity to explore something that will enable them to develop knowledge, skills and attitudes that can be put into practice and will help them as useful citizens in society locally, nationally and globally. It is a two to two and a half hour session with a minimum of 20 participants and a maximum of 35. The following are the objectives of a workshop  To allow young people understand the current issues that affect them  To allow young people acquire the necessary skills, attitude and knowledge on how to tackle the challenges  To enable young people know how to practically solve issue in their own communities and environment 13th World Scout Moot

THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE Types of Workshops 1. Practical workshops - practical skill are taught like making an energy saving Jikos and other items 2. Communication work shop - participants will learn the skills of communication in order to pass complex information to the community like the little magnet theatre, music and narratives 3. Awareness workshop this is meant to give participants a chance to discuss and exchange ideas, drawing up plans for own projects. It can be a talk and participants can be put into small discussion and working groups.

ACTIVITIES Participants speak wide range of languages and the activities therefore should be interactive as possible and allow for team spirit, role-plays, encourage creativity and apply their innovative powers. Understanding and dialogue have to also take place through action and experimentation and not only through spoken and written words. Quality of programme There are several activities at hand and each participant is challenged to choose one that best suits them. We however encourage them to attend as many as their time allows, but more so subject the activities into practice. The organizations also need to see to it that they offer the best programme possible in the specific fields of interest.

STAFF The workshops will be run by experts from each of the organizations invited. Our Global Development Team of International Service Staff will on request help by providing support in the conception of each workshop. Some useful hints for a successful a workshop:  Participants must be kept actively occupied for the entire workshop period following the scout method of learning by doing  The topics are for young adults, so the discussions should be relevant to 18-25 year olds.  The issues addressed must be current and of relevance to young people.  The sessions should be dynamic and lively and comprehensive to people from different cultures, region, and backgrounds and to participants who speak different languages.  The workshops must apply the following methods

THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT VILLAGE a) Identify issues of concern at world level b) Allow participants understand the problem, factors, implications and consequences c) Let participants know how they can act in their own countries d) The leaflets and brochures are availed in different languages - English and French is mandatory but if they can be availed in any other language it is still fine. e) Each participant should write down an action plan

LANGUAGES Language problem is certainly something that everyone is likely to experience. This means that the following should be considered when organizing a workshop 

The participants will not speak a common language

The International Service Staff will not speak a common language

It is possible to offer a workshop in various languages, or sub groups of the same workshop in different languages.

Some participants might have physical challenges.

If you consider offering some workshops verbally using one language it will be a good idea to translate the key words into other common language(s) as well for instance if you carry out a workshop on peace and you consider violence in society as the topic the content does not have to be extensively translated a few key word are often sufficient. Any language problem can be taken as challenge. NB: Every challenge has a way of being overcome and it will even foster international understanding and cooperation when people are willing to learn and understand each other solutions. Another possible way is to highly use non verbal communication like puppets and mimes to make the session as exciting as we all wish.
