We will be using Voices against violence curriculum, which has been designed by the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts and UN Women; it has already been piloted in a number of countries. The activities are age-related and focus on creating a space where girls can talk about these topics and understanding what makes each of us special and unique.
Leaders have been trained to run this programme. Girls will work towards the Voices against Violence badge and will appreciate and be able to work towards Advocacy.
We would love your girls to participate in this event as part of the Australian Pilot, please contact me if you have any questions.
