Looking back at project week it was a really good experience not only from when we did things like hiking but also for giving us the opportunity to make more of a global change. During our trip, we spent 2 days working with our service partner, and the other 3 doing activities and exploring Chang Mai. I think that both parts of the trip had an impact on all of us. We needed to work with the NGO in order to create a change. And we needed to
During the trip, things went overall really well, with no “Major” Errors happening, most of the challenge for us during the trip was finding stuff to do during our unplanned time such as going to the market. This was challenging as we need to properly plan for the additional activities and what we were doing.
I think that during the trip we really accomplished learning outcomes 7 & 6. We were constantly considering how our actions affected what was going on around us and we engaged more directly than any of us ever had with issues on a global scale.
Gili Eco Trust is a global concern (GC) service group that leads awareness and fund raising events to help protect the coral reefs and marine life of the Gili Islands in Indonesia. I have been a part of the GC for 2 years now. It has really helped me to understand the importance of our actions as well as the effect that we as a species have had on the environment. During my time at the GC last year, I took on the role Head of Logistics. However this year I would like to try and get the role of Chair for the GC. I think that if I were to get the role of Chair I could help lear the GC to raise even more money as well as gain more traction at the school.
I think that so far during my time working I Gili Eco Trust this year I have been able to see learning Outcomes 6 and 3. At the very start of the year, we helped to organize and run an event called “Swimdoniesa” alongside several other GCs. We all worked together to raise funds for different causes in Indonesia and the rest of Southeast Asia. This event really helped me to refine my planning skills as well as my leadership, as I was running the stall for long periods of time.
