Inspired youth and adults can also follow up independent from the group, and organize activities with us, and receive coaching, for example as Changemaker Student Club, as member of the Boost! Club etc.
- This liberates teachers from responsibilities and group expectations that they cannot fulfill
- This enables companies, conferences and events to combine inspiration with action and partnerships
Our encounter can be combined with UNITED NATIONS Theme Days – water, peace, girls, biodiversity etc – with special stories, actions, exhibits, project days, activation of teachers, media, city …

ACTIVITIES
Examples for BEFORE and AFTER our encounter
FUNdraising
$100€. But what about $1€ per student of the school? $1,000€ would move quite something. There’s classes that aimed at $350 and made $1,400 in 2 weeks. Are you ready to discover how many potentials, givers and in-kind support you can unlock in your extended community of parents, their workplaces etc?
Support the Initiative
e.g. a book and games drive for Emma and Julia, Babar, Neha. A school can easily raise 1 per student, 1,000 pieces worth $10,000€. Wow! Wouldn’t that make the news? It would, and that will unlock even more support! Which goals would inspire you?
Join the Initiative, reach Milestones
Create a biotope, tower- oder dyeing color garden, declare an ARK or Blue Community, produce a micro expedition film, join the Global SDG School Challenge – surprise us!

Namaste Nepal make $40,000€ with a 48h sponsor run. Others make $10,000€ in year 1. Will you choose to be epic?

THE MANY ADVANTAGES
by using the many flanking measures:
- the impact is multipled
- the encounter becomes more more exciting
- it is memorable, long-term; so many “moments and stories”
- opportunity for specialized teams to follow their passion, wield their talents, contribute in their way (in-kind, FUNdraising, media work, art, presentations…)
- it produces many experiences, creative contributions and contents for media
- the “core goal” (encounter and education) is definitely secure. There is liberty for experimentation and achieving many precious extra goals, evolving life skills
Further:
- much higher pedagogical value
- much higher motivation by bigger vision, meaning, involvement
- sportive dimension : “how much of it can we realize?”
- suboptimal results are acceptable, they do not sabotage the overall success
- the “spectacular” presence and “attention” gives opportunity to reach other wishes and milestones (for example media presence, activating the entire school…)
= it is a strong experience of one’s AGENCY
- “wow, we can truly move big things!”
- as individual, as group, as school, as city
- “what are we gonna do next?”
- write history with a taste of magic and adventure
= an experience of STRATEGY
- use every bit of potential for “more”
- because they are easy to unlock!
This multiplex experience can be used for various ventures in the future
Attention : also INDIVIDUALS
can use this strategy to activate an entire school and city. Especially
- students
- teachers
- parents
- YL Coaches
* especially those who have completed the YL Coach Tutorial and use our tips and tricks
