October 11: Celebrate the International Day of the Girl with your Troop or Group! WHAT IT IS: On the International Day of
the Girl (IDG) the global community, including the
World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts,
comes together to celebrate the power of girls and
highlight, discuss, and take action to advance the
rights of and opportunities for girls everywhere. Every
year, Girl Scouts of the USA celebrates International Day of
the Girl with a special campaign created around the annual
theme; look for details at https://www.girlscouts.org/en/for-girls/think-globally.html. It
is a day to promote girls' rights, highlight the unique
challenges they face, and showcase their potential to make a
difference in the world. INTERNATIONAL DAY
OF THE GIRL information and activity ideas are available now
on pages 26-28 of the Global Action Days Toolkit, found in the
Resources section of the Volunteer Toolkit. By doing
activities that celebrate the International Day of the Girl,
Girl Scouts are completing one step toward earning the Global
Action Days patch. |
