IPP Opportunity in Myanmar this Winter - act by Aug 31

CISV Canada has received an invitation for an IPP in Myanmar! 

Please see details below and contact Shauna at  secretary.cisvwaterloo@gmail.com if interested. We need to express our interest in this IPP by August 31st.

Overcoming boundaries - Understanding identity, breaking prejudices and community building

Where and When:  Myanmar. 22 December 2018 to 4 January to 2019.
Educational Content Area:  Conflict Resolution.

Project Description:  In this IPP will learn about the different cultures and conflicts existing within Myanmar, a country with over 135 ethnic groups, and reflect on how differences and conflicts can be overcome.
Organizing a camp for children from different ethnic backgrounds, participants will establish a camp in which the differences are less important than the bonds everyone can make with each other. Participants will also visit a local orphanage that has many different ethnic groups’ orphans, from different backgrounds and speaking different languages. Communication problems between the children can make it difficult to establish trusting relationships. Participants and children from the camp will plan activities to help build trust.
The Khayay School is a leader in cultural empathy education through their multilingual curriculum, bridging students, families and faculties from different backgrounds to create a holistic learning environment.
Any successful outcomes will be used to offer hope during the Rohingya crisis.
(Hosted by CISV Myanmar and CISV Japan)
