千禧年发展计划青年人活动工具包现在已经在线可用

Over the last months, TakingITGlobal, the Global Youth Action Network and the United Nations Millennium Campaign have worked hard to develop an MDG Youth Campaign Kit, which provides young people with all the necessary tools to start their own local or national MDG campaigns. The complete kit, including an action guide, brochures and a poster, a sticker, bookmark and postcard, are now available in English, French, Spanish and German on our website. In addition to the digital versions we'll send out 500 kits to our members at the end of the month and you can still apply to receive one as well. All you need to do is fill out our short survey 点击此处



在德国发行MDG月刊发行页

TakingITGlobal has partnered with the German Millennium Campaign to engage more young people in Germany in the activities around the Millennium Development Goals. A first step of the partnership was to translate the MDG monthly theme page, including the MDG Youth Campaign Kit, into German. If you speak German, check the site out! 点击此处

鉴于这次成功经验,我们正在寻找德语母语的朋友帮助我们翻译剩下的TakingITGlobal的页面。如果您有兴趣自愿每周或每月花几个小时帮助我们翻译,请发一封邮件给Franziska: franziska@takingitglobal.org


为WPAY组织论坛

10 years ago in 1995, the World Program of Action for Youth was adopted by the United Nations, highlighting ten key priority areas for youth and giving recommendations to governments and international agencies on how to increase youth participation in policy processes that affect their lives. Ten years after the adoption of this important document, there are still only a few people who know about it! Although youth participation in decision-making processes has seen some improvements, we still have a long way to go until youth will be fully recognized as key partners in development. So here's an idea. Why not spread the word about WPAY and organize an Open Forum in your community? You can make this an opportunity to discuss with other young people and local government officials what needs to be done in your community in order to realize the WPAY recommendations.

国家特性

印度

Our members from India have always been active in the TIG online community, feverishly submitting their writing, art and opinions. Now, with our current TIG Theme on Food, you know that Indian members will be close at hand again, not only because Indian food is beloved to many, but because our members are passionate about sharing food traditions and much more. Thank you to Maulik Baxi and Vagmi Dholakia who participated in the Food Theme advisory board and shared many thoughts and recipes such as 'Dal Dhokli' and "Pizza and Tacos with an Indian twist." Both recipes have been translated into 4 languages, so there is no excuse not to try them out! Plus, active TIG member Ajay Kamalakaran has already submitted 3 recipes and 1 photoblog since the Monthly Theme has launched. Can you keep up with our Indian members?

黎巴嫩

Thousands upon thousands jammed downtown Beirut, the capital city of Lebanon, on the weekend of April 8, 2005, for late night dinner extravaganzas and overnight leisure at sidewalk cafes. What were they doing? Answering a call to stop mourning and revive a city buffeted by nearly two months of political and economic turmoil following the assassination of ex-Premier, Rafik Hariri. The festivities were part of the "National Unity Initiative" and bustled through until the 30th anniversary day of the civil war outbreak in Lebanon. They provide testament to the power that food has in bringing people together to celebrate, reflect on, and act upon their past, present, and future. Were you at the festivities? What impact has this initiative had on your view of the situation in Lebanon? Find out what other members in Lebanon are saying: 点击此处

CLC 俄罗斯更新:在布达佩斯的TIG会员警告微软

"I had an incredible opportunity to meet youth leaders from several countries and to share my thoughts and ideas on how young people can impact technology development," writes Sofya Mezhorina from the small town of Tambov, Russia. Sofya, who graduated this year with a major in Linguistics, is one of 12 young people - most of them TIG members - from 10 countries selected by Microsoft as advisors for the Information Worker Board of the Future-2005. The mission of the 12-member board, which convened this year in Budapest on June 19-23, is to develop a vision for the future of work and the role technology will play in tomorrow's work force.

TIG 在非洲,第一个MDG论坛在西非

In partnership with ANCEFA (Africa Network Campaign on Education for All), TakingITGlobal organized the first MDG West Africa Open Forum in Dakar, Senegal on June 16. The forum coincided with the International Celebration of African Child Day and saw the official launch of the MDG West Africa Youth Caucus. The youth caucus and other youth activists from Senegal, Mali, Burkina Faso and Rwanda gathered in Dakar to identify their role in the fight against poverty and the struggle to reach the MDGs in the West Africa Region. In attendance were major West African MDG stakeholders including the Millennium Campaign Regional Coordinator Coumba Toure, the Millennium Campaign Regional Youth Editor and representatives of the Senegalese National Platform for the MDGs. From talking to the 45 participants at the open forum, the MC Regional Coordinator stressed: "Poverty is not destiny… the same way we defeated Apartheid, we can defeat poverty." And with this kind of momentum - the West African Youth Caucus grew to 150 members after the open forum (!) - why not?

地区性的伙伴关系

Global Gallery 讨论"我们正在吃什么?"

每个人都知道你所吃的东西不只影响到你的钱包和个人感觉,还影响到你的健康安详,更重要的,他与你周围的所有人都有关。我们所吃的食物影响到整个环境,空气、水、大地、我们的经济、政策、交流方式甚至是工人们的生命和消费者的喜好。它不只是关于营养和消费,它还关系到你周围的人,你每天的朋友以及远方不知名的人们。

每次当我们进食的时候,我们都在与许多不知是何我们同桌的人们共同分享。

This month the Global Gallery invites you to create images representing the impact of what we eat; images of how you share your food with others, images of influence on the the massive world around us and of impact on our everyday experiences, and images showing how our world is affected and changing, in positive or negative ways, because of our eating habits. Send in your contest entries by July 29! 点击此处



全景在线杂志

Our current issue is packed with hearty writings on our spotlight theme – food! You can read smartly written articles on what TIG members think about the production, distribution and consumption of food. In his article, TIG member Antony Simbowo speaks out against Genetically Modified foods and their impact on struggling farmers.

"Fact is, genetically modified foods are engineered such that they possess what is known as the chain termination sequence. Pioneered by a British Biochemist, Fredrick Sanger, the process (also called the Sanger or the dideoxy process) manipulates the plants' genetic structure such that it cannot produce a viable offspring. This means that after the first harvest, a farmer has to go back to the seed vendor and buy a fresh supply of seeds from the patent holding company for planting since the first produce can only be consumed and not be successfully re-grown. This therefore creates a complete dependence on the companies for the continuous supply of seeds."

Do you agree with what Antony has to say about GM foods? You can comment on any article you read in Panorama, but if you're passionate enough, write your own article on a food issue that matters to you. Submit your writing to Panorama on food or any topic today! 点击此处

Justin Trudeau 参加了反对北极气候变化的青年志愿者

This July 22 to August 5, a unique and unprecedented International Youth Environmental Leadership Expedition to the Arctic is taking place. The ship-based journey from Iceland to Greenland to the Canadian Arctic will involve 70 high school students from around the world. The students will participate in a research and educational program together with a team of leading scientists, environmentalists and educators,including Justin Trudeau, Sheila Watt-Cloutier, Skid Crease, and Dr. Fritz Koerner. The students will explore and witness first-hand the impacts Climate Change is having on the Arctic. Geography, history, flora, fauna, glaciology, politics, culture and much more will also be addressed. One of the many objectives will be for the students to produce a Youth Action Statement on Climate Change, which will be integrated into a youth declaration tabled by youth delegates at the upcoming Kyoto meeting in Montreal. Interested students and teachers are still needed to join the expedition.
