Global Awareness Programme Online - Project Africa from Berkshire Scouts

Project Africa – Global Awareness Programme

resources now online!

Following the interest that Project Africa has generated with young people, and the enthusiastic response of Leaders, resources are now available to bring Project Africa into your weekly Meetings. You can access more than 50 activities and resources, covering a wide range of themes, ready for use by Sections and Units. You can also mix and match to suit your inspiration.

All activities and resources can be downloaded and are easy to find, either by listing them all, or using the filters offered on the Global Awareness Programme (GAP) page.

Project Africa is a Berkshire Scouts project developed to engage young people in supporting young people (helping others). It is hoped that you and your Section or Unit will help raise the funds to make a difference to the lives of Scouts and young people in Uganda. You will find information about the community projects on the Project Africa web page, ideas and ready-to-print fundraising support material on the GAP page as well as information on why we need your support on the Fundraising page.

Project Africa is a long term project designed to give everyone involved with Berkshire Scouts the opportunity to understand and make a difference to the lives of young people in Uganda.

To kick off the fundraising, you have the Bukeka Chicken Appeal, which ties in nicely with the arrival of Spring!

The GAP page will be updated monthly, so please send in your comments and requests to help us tailor the activities to your needs. A second phase to the GAP will be launched following the recce trip to Uganda that takes place this summer (2010).

If you have any comments, queries or suggestions please contact the Project Africa team.
