Ivorian Cubs Scouts join in the Cubs100 Celebrations

As part of activities marking the celebrations of the centenary of the World Cub Scouting, Ivorian Cub Scouts gathered in the town of Anyama, North-East of Abidjan to carry out different activities on the theme "Peace, Sustainable Development and Protection of the Best Childhood for Cub Scouting." The over 150 children (Scouts and non-Scouts) supported by 25 Cubs Scout Leaders, Regional and District commissioners planted 110 trees under the "Trees For The World" program with Friends from the Active Youth for Sustainability (JADD) organization. The children also expressed their vision of a Better World through artistic works such as drawings, the textile of the future, skits, dances and songs on the theme cited above. An awareness conference was held on the topic “Sustainable Development Goals: Improving life everywhere," with the view to promote the Sustainable Development Goals among children and to get them to develop a commitment for a better world. The leaders, led by the Regional commissioner for Abidjan - Blehou Aka and the Messengers of Peace coordinator - Marie Louise Ycossie, stressed on the importance of these goals and the responsibility that Scouts have to help in their realization. The importance of volunteering and environmental protection on achieving good life for the people was also highlighted. The event ended with artistic performances and the reaffirmation of the Scout promise. (Contributions from Falle Ycossie)
