Fawco News April 2020
FAWCO is proposing an easy Photo Project for clubs to generate excitement about the UN Sustainable Development Goals which FAWCO’s work supports.
The idea is to make global issues, and specifically the 17 SDG’s, relatable and personal. AWG can participate, but needs the help of members, and the project is, in fact, FOR club members, by using a fun project to raise awareness. (Each SDG icon has a flip-side with an explanation.)
The Photo Project will start on May 15th, and will run for 17 weeks – one SDG photo to be published per week – in order to coincide with the fifth anniversary, on September 15th, of the adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals by the 193 member states. We need volunteers to submit a photo with one of the SDG icons, and the reason she (or he) supports that particular SDG. Several photos may be taken at the same time, but only one should be published per week on social media, such as the FAWCO Facebook page. Members can also ask family and friends to participate. As well as participating in the all-FAWCO project, AWG-LR can publish the photos and texts on other social media (AWG-LR has a Facebook page AND a blog) or in e-mail messages to members.
Contact Michael or Maggie for details.
Also, FAWCO has started a collection of recipes and invites members to share favorite recipes that have helped them get through confinement. The link where you can submit your recipes is https://forms.gle/
So let’s show FAWCO that AWG-LR is still that small but mighty club in the south of France, despite confinement.
