中華民國童軍總會於109年8月29日協同花蓮縣童軍會假花蓮縣縣立花崗國中辦理2020和平使者計畫種子研習營。共有26位夥伴參與，童軍總會張文鑫副秘書長、羅浮青年委員會主任委員楊永欽主委、花蓮縣童軍會楊陳榮總幹事、花蓮縣童軍會柯登祥、林東興、危正華理監事、童軍總會和平使者聯絡人盛孝銘及和平使者計畫團隊皆共同出席開幕典禮。

和平使者計畫（Messengers of Peace，以下簡稱MoP）為世界童軍總部於各國童軍青少年活動的重點發展活動之一，希望藉由多元教育的模式讓更多的青少年尊重不同人種及宗教、改善貧窮、教育及基本生存資源的不平等、促進環境保護等，並借青年力量來渲染全世界，創造更美好的世界。世界童軍總部也鼓勵各國童軍積極將MoP與聯合國永續發展目標結合，使得全世界青少年皆有機會為世界盡一份心力。

配合教育部108年新課綱的推動，和平使者計畫更符合其中「社會參與」的多元文化與國際理解，使得青少年能尊重與欣賞多元文化、積極關係世界議題、掌握時代的動脈、發展國際理解、多元文化的價值觀與世界和平的胸懷。

 另外聯合國永續發展目標過去一直在世界童軍活動計畫中執行，包括和平使者計畫、世界童軍環境教育計畫及世界童軍獎章，目的皆在透過引發青少年對於世界議題的重視，進而讓青少年針對不同的全球議題，進行計畫的實踐，發揮「做中學、學中做」的精神，進而創造美好的世界。

這次在花蓮辦理和平使者計劃種子營有兩項重要指標與責任。一是今年因為新冠疫情的影響，喚醒全球各國對於疾病健康與防疫醫療提升更高重視，而疾病健康須從環境與生活做起，在聯合國永續發展目標中良好健康與社會福利更是凸顯了新冠疫情的衝擊，也同時喚醒我們如何在教育行動中讓青少年深刻體會健康與環境的關係。二是花蓮位在台灣東部，普遍慣用的交通工具是火車鐵路運輸，而東部因地形使得交通費時費力，雖然資訊網路已是無遠弗屆，但是行動學習仍是因交通經濟問題而有所阻礙，致使許多有心研習的夥伴放棄西部的研習活動，有感於這樣的阻礙，我們在疫情稍為緩解的暑假最後時刻，在花蓮辦理這場MOP種子研習營。

感謝在疫情期間仍支持我們辦理活動的花蓮縣立花崗國中及花蓮縣童軍會。在好山好水，沒有疫情的花蓮，順利完成2020和平使者計畫種子營。

我們也收到在研習中引發夥伴的學習心得分享：

On August 29, 2020, the Scouts of China cooperated with the Hualien Scout Council to conduct the 1st 2020 Messengers of Peace Taiwan - Local Coordinators Training at Hua-gang Junior High School at Hualien County. A total of 26 partners participated, including deputy secretary-general of TGASC - Chang Wen-shing,  chairman of the National Rover and Youth Committee - Yang Yung-Chin, secretary-general of the Hualien Scout Council - Yang Chen-Rong,  director of the Hualien Scout Council - Ke Deng-Xiang, Lin Dong-Xing, and Wei Zheng-hua,  MoP Taiwan NSO coordinator - Sherman Sheng and the MoP team attended the opening ceremony.

The Messengers of Peace (MoP) is one of the key development activities of the Scout Youth Activities of the WOSM. It is hoped that more youths will respect different races and religions through a multi-educated model. Improve poverty, education, and the inequality of basic living resources, promote environmental protection, etc., and use the power of youth to exaggerate the world and create a better world. The WOSM also encourages Scouts from all countries to actively integrate MoP with sustainable development goals, so that young people around the world have the opportunity to contribute to the world.

In line with the promotion of the new courses of study of the Ministry of Education in 108 years, the MoP is more in line with the multicultural and international understanding of "social participation", enabling young people to respect and appreciate multiculturalism, actively relate to world issues, grasp the arteries of the times, and develop internationally Understanding, multicultural values and world peace of mind.

In addition, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals have been implemented in the World Scouting Programs in the past, including the MoP, the World Scout Environmental Education Program, and the World Scout Medal. The purpose is to attract young people’s attention to world issues. Let young people implement plans for different global issues, and give full play to the spirit of "learning by doing, doing by learning", and then creating a better world.

There are two important targets and responsibilities for handling the   2020 Messengers of Peace Local coordinators Training in this time. The first, due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic this year, countries around the world have awakened to pay more attention to disease health and epidemic prevention and medical care. For disease health, it must start from the environment and life. Good health and social welfare are highlighted in the United Nations sustainable development goals. The impact of the COVID-19 epidemic has also awakened how we can let young people deeply understand the relationship between health and the environment in educational actions. The second is that Hualien is located in the eastern part of Taiwan. The usual means of transportation is by train. The eastern part is time-consuming and labor-intensive due to the terrain. Although the information network is far-reaching, action learning is still due to transportation and economic problems.  Therefore caused many partners gave up study activities that are willing to study activities in the west. Feeling of such obstacles, we handling this MOP local coordinators training in Hualien at the last moment of the summer vacation when the epidemic was slightly relieved.

We have also received the sharing of learning experience from our partners during the study:

"From this MoP training, I learned about the 17 goals and meanings of SDGs. I hope that I will soon have the opportunity to cooperate with other local NGOs to maximize the power of MoP." - Lin Qun-Yao, troop 99 (Hualien Community Scout Group), Hualien Scout Council. 

"This activity has a lot of benefits for me. Starting from the beginning of MoP, it took us step by step to understand the mean of this Scouting activity. In the afternoon interactive course, the host led us to use practical Action to understand the four major processes of MoP, and to understand the problems that will happen what is in the actual application. I look forward to participating in this type of activity again next time.” - Wu, Rong-Jun, Troop 80, Hsinchu City Scout Council.

"By reuniting my imagination of a beautiful world and peace, I found the original intention and inspiration for action." - Xu an-tsun troop 30, Taichung City Scout Council. 

"This MoP training had taught me a lot of systematic proposal methods, and the difficulties that may be faced in actual operation and how to solve them, so that I can have more progressive results when I want to post MoP activities next time.” - Zeng Pin-rui, troop 80, Hsinchu City Scout Council.
