Free Being Me (FBM) & Action on Body Confidence (ABC) Round 1 (Brownies)

Dear Brownie Guiders,

HQ is organising the WAGGGS Badge Programme : the Free Being Me (FBM) cum the Action on Body Confidence (ABC) to P5 and P6 Brownies.

The Free Being Me (FBM) is a WAGGGS Badge targets at girls and young women. It focuses on empowering girls by improving their confidence and self-esteem to realize their fullest potential. Through fun and interactive activities through different technological platforms, Brownies will learn that body confidence and self-esteem come from valuing their bodies, standing up to social pressures and supporting others to be more body confident.

The Action on Body Confidence (ABC) has been created to support more girls. It allows participants to plan and run Action Projects to reach out to more people in a meaningful way. Participants will develop skills in teamwork, planning, public speaking and decision making as well as campaigning and community outreach.

“FBM” and “ABC” co-relates to MOE’s framework fulfilling the following objectives :
1. Debunk societal myth (Self and Society Awareness)
2. Create self-awareness in relation to one’s own strengths (Self-Management)
3. Make responsible decisions about one’s choice (Responsible Decision-Making)
4. Encourage others (Relationship Management)

Brownies will learn the following from this workshop :-
∙ What’s inside us matter most
∙ There’s not just one way to look beautiful
∙ There is a huge diversity of beauty ideals around the world
∙ The media uses a narrow idea of beauty to sell things to us
∙ Images of beauty in the media often don’t show people as they really are
