Program

The group that left the IPP house in Bogotá to travel to Arauca on the 2nd of January came back to the Colombian capital as a changed group. The ten days spent in Arauca were full of unforgettable moments and lots of learning. These experiences made both the group stronger and also gave the participants new perspectives on life.

Our last evening in Tame we were invited to watch a movie with the locals and some representatives from the School of Community Justice. This was something totally different from what we had expected. We arrived just before sunset to a basketball court situated in a poor suburb of Tame. There were children everywhere running around and playing. They were all curious and happy, and we decided to do a couple of energizers with them.

This was a very special day for us.

Activity 1: Role Game
Our Feelings: curiosity, excitement, fun, easiness.

Our first activity was a role game in which we were supposed to act like different groups: the guerilla, the government, the society, NGOs etc. We all dressed up and planned our strategies and started acting out our roles in the game. In the beginning it was a mixture of fun and easiness: we were observing each others’ creativity when it came to the dressing up, taking photos of each others and making jokes.

I Januar er Jonas Grøn og Camilla Wetzel fra CISV Danmark på IPP i Colombia, hvor de sammen med ca. 20 andre deltagere er med i et projekt om social retfærdighed i lokalsamfundet i staten Arauca.

Du kan her følge deltagernes beretninger, tanker, holdninger m.m. om projektet.

Et af CISV's fokusområder er Forskellighed, og derfor kommer blog-indlægene fra forskelige deltagere, fra forskelige lande, med forskellig baggrund og forskellige tanker og holdninger.

Så er CISV Danmarks nye hjemmeside oppe at køre! Fredag den 20. november gik vi i luften med den nye side. Vi håber at alle vil nyde den og held og lykke med at udforske den!

God weekend!
