Tour Wrap Up

The Change Your World Alberta Youth Leadership tour has wrapped up for 2012 and it was a huge success! After the homestays in Vicos, we travelled to Chincha to visit Rainbow of Hope for Children education centres and rooftop rebuilding projects, and then onto Lima to visit Cuso International project on youth employment and gender equality/sexual health.  Having the opportunity visit both of these organizations and their partners was eye opening for us and we learned a lot about how to develop equitable partnerships and strong relationships when working in the international development sector.

We are all headed to Edmonton this week to debrief our experience and to start building our presentation for our Fall tour to Alberta schools and community groups.  The documentary is in the editing studio and the premiere will be on September 22nd at the ACGC Annual General Meeting & Evening Affair in Edmonton. This event will also feature activist and pranksters, The Yes Men.  Visit www.theyesmen.eventbrite.ca to purchase tickets!

We also have some short webisodes of our experience on the ACGC Youtube channel, which can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com/user/ACGCNow . Check in regularly for updates!
