Dear Sir/Madam,

We would like to inform you about an exciting opportunity that is coming up this June. WAGGGS is organising a Stop the Violence Facilitators Workshop, from the 6th to 10th June 2019 in Ghana. The workshop’s goal is to bring together experienced trainers and facilitators that have worked in the training and delivery of the Voices against Violence curriculum and Stop the Violence Advocacy Campaign. Workshop participants will work with the planning team to create an updated ACTIVATE generic training plan and its sessions, incorporating the WAGGGS new leadership model and the step-by-step training for a national advocacy campaign.

Dates - 6th to 10th June, 2019. (Accommodation will be provided from the evening of the 5th to the morning of 11th June, 2019 and participants need to arrive by the 5th and depart on the 11th of June).

Goal and Objectives - The workshop’s goal is to bring together experienced trainers and facilitators that have worked in the training and delivery of the Voices against Violence curriculum. Workshop participants will work with the planning team to create an updated ACTIVATE generic training plan and its sessions, incorporating the WAGGGS new leadership model and the step-by-step training for a national advocacy campaign.

WAGGGS has been running ACTIVATE training events since 2012 as part of its global advocacy campaign, ‘Stop the Violence: speak out for girls’ rights’. These events train members of our Associations on gender-based violence, the Stop the Violence campaign and the Voices against Violence curriculum, which was produced in partnership with UN Women and sits within the Stop the Violence campaign. The last few years have been successful in generating interest in, and commitment to, the Stop the Violence (STV) campaign and there are now 70 Associations rolling out the campaign and curriculum. However, it is time to review the ACTIVATE trainings in order to continue to support National Associations that want to work with the Campaign and the programme.

We are looking for people who have experience in delivering the Voices against Violence programme in their country and overall training experience in their Association. During the five-day workshop, participants will share successful practices and tools used to deliver the Voices against Violence curriculum and the Stop the Violence Campaign. During this workshop, we will be discussing with participants about their future commitment regarding the STV volunteer resource pool. This pool would aim to provide virtual or physical support to Associations who wish to be engage with the STV Campaign and the programme.
