World Thinking Day on Twitter and Facebook!

We call Girl Guides and Girl Scouts to use the potential of social media and promote World Thinking Day through Twitter and Facebook!

With the help of Girl Guides of Canada, we are trying to get the hashtag #WTD11 listed as one of the most discussed topics on Twitter next 22 February. If we get #WTD11 listed as a trend that day, we could raise our profile and get more and more people interested in what Girl Guides and Girls Scouts do. To make it a trend we need lots of people talking about us but they also have to be spread all over the world.

That’s why we are asking all our followers on Twitter to tweet #WTD11 that day. For those on twitter, you can follow the WAGGGS page and retweet us: http://twitter.com/#!/WAGGGS_WORLD

If you are on facebook, we are also asking members to put: “I’m thinking of World Thinking Day” as their status on 22 February.

Please do help us spread the word about these two initiatives!

World Thinking Day 2011

Each year on 22 February, Girl Guides and Girl Scouts all over the world celebrate World Thinking
Day (WTD). This is a special day when Girl Scouts and Girl Guides think of each other and give thanks and
appreciation to their “sisters”
The 2011 theme
This year the theme is UN Millennium Development Goal
(MDG) 3: girls worldwide say “empowering girls will
change our world” and the aim is to raise awareness of the
situation for many girls and young women and empower
them to take a stand against inequality. In different areas
of the world, women do not have the same access to
education, work and leadership opportunities as men.
Did you know ...
• Women hold only 19 per cent of the world’s
parliamentary seats
• Girls are twice as likely to be unable to read
as boys
• Women do two thirds of the work in the
world, but earn only 10 per cent of
the income
• Six out of every ten women experience
physical or sexual violence in their lifetime

World Thinking Day is getting close!

The World Thinking Day 2011 activity pack has plenty of practical ways to learn about the theme - Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 3: gender equality and empowering women.
