Interactive quest “Think Global, Act Local”S!”

Saturday 21 September 2014 | 15:00 – 18:00 | Riga’s Old Town

Do you realize that everything you do has an impact on the world? And that you can actually make a global change through small, local initiatives? That is the idea behind the slogan “Think Global, Act Local!”, which is used by environmental activists around the world. And it is also the theme of the youth event organized by Lapas.lv on Sunday 21 September.

From 15:00 to 18:00 you will find a number of posts spread out throughout Riga’s Old Town. In each of these posts, you are invited to do a task which will help you explore your personal relationship to the world, global society and the environment.

You will begin your quest at Rīgas Valsts 1.ģimnāzija. Here you will be given a map with all the six stops, and your personal “travel card”. The six stops are:

Rīgas Valsts 1.ģimnāzija – „Attīstības brīdis”

Various interactive educational workshops, led by Jaunatnes Attīstības un Sadarbības Multikulturālās Apvienības.

Bastejkalns – „Eko cilvēks”

Mini geo-caching game and creative upcycling workshops, organized by homo ecos:.

Laimas pulkstenis – „Drošās satikšanās”

Activities and information about human rights, sexual reproduction and health, and human trafficking, hosted by Drošā Māja and Biedrība “Papardes zieds”.

Hotel De Rome – „Brīvs un prātīgs”

Interested in volunteering, either in Latvia or abroad? Here you can find out which options you have! Organized by “Trepes”, “Teodors” and “Solis tuvak”.

Doma laukums – „Prezident-tūre”

Talk about the future of Riga, Latvia and the world and find out it is important for young people to be involved in Latvia’s presidency of the EU in 2015. Led by Latvias platforma attīstības sadarbībai, Latvias Lauku forums and Latvias Jaunatnes padome.

We will end our quest at youth center BaMbuss (Brīvības iela 204) with good music, some snacks and a lottery.

* Pasākums notiek Rīgas domes Izglītības, kultūras un sporta departamenta organizētā Jauniešu mēneša ietvaros. Pasākumu finansē Rīgas dome.
