Action on Body Confidence Training, 3 & 4 Dec

Dear Guide Guiders,

Action on Body Confidence Training

This activity-based programme focuses on empowering and supporting participants to plan and run their own body confidence advocacy projects so as to make a positive difference to the lives of children and young people. Through surveys, discussions and creative activities, they will uncover the problems that low body confidence causes in the society and ask for change from the decision makers. 

This is an opportunity to develop and sharpen participants’ planning, organising, leadership and advocacy skills. They will also learn new ideas that will be useful for running fun and meaningful unit activities using the WAGGGS non-formal educational method.

Given the current COVID-19 outlook, we would not be able to have the workshop in HQ. We will conduct the training virtually over 2 separate sessions instead.
