Geocaching on MDG lifestyle

or

How to address Young Modern Performers outdoors?

 

 

 

Summary

 

This action makes use of the habits of YMPs in order to place development education information in this game. We want to put MDG information literally “into the game”. Eight treasures (caches) are placed in the city and nearby nature. Each cache addresses one of the MDGs. Information material and hints for personal lifestyle change concerning the MDGs are included in the caches. This could be, for example, a simple chart on the situation of gender equality, with a link to online petition initiatives for women’s rights. This material is for the finder to take away. The locations of the eight MDG caches are published on geocaching internet platforms. YMPs who are already registered on these platforms get to know about the caches. This way, YMPs get information on MDG lifestyles in a casual way, while playing their regular geocache game.
