The World Youth Foundation is hosting an International Training Workshop on Environment and Disaster Management in August 2006. This international training workshop is a follow up process to the International Conference on Environment and Disaster Management held in Melaka, Malaysia from 26- 29th August 2005.
Objective:
Ø To create awareness and encourage greater educational presence on nature/environment
Ø To empower youth to use education and communication as key tools to achieve MDGs
Ø To examine existing approaches and proven success stories on environment conservation, i.e awareness and prevention programmes
Ø To understand, involve and dialogue with youth about their vision of the future and desire (or not) on sustainability
Participation
· 90 youth representatives from various national youth coordination councils globally and locally
· 10 representatives of collaborating Ministries and international non-governmental organizations working on environment and sustainable development related aspects and representatives of United Nations agencies.
Participants who are interested to participate in the proposed training workshop are requested to send an email to wyf (at) po.jaring.my for the application forms and participation guidelines. The Foundation is also trying to assist participants from 30 countries to subsidize their air travel either in full or in part i.e. Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Cambodia, Fiji, Ghana, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Laos, Mauritius, Macedonia, Namibia, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Serbia, Sierra Leona, Slovakia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Tanzania, Thailand, Uganda, Vietnam, Zimbabwe
However the Foundation is in no position to confirm that there will be funds available until June 2006. Hence the Foundation strongly requests participants to seek their own sponsors.
Important Dates to remember : Closing dates: 30th June 2006 for those not seeking air travel subsidy
15th March 2006 for those seeking air travel subsidy.
