The Girl
Scouts Global Action patch was developed in partnership with the World
Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS). This is an exciting and
enriching way for Girl Scout Daisies to Ambassadors to participate in realizing
the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) which aim to reduce
extreme poverty and impact major world concerns by 2015.
By participating in
the Global Action patch activities, girls can learn, in a fun and educational
way, about serious global issues affecting girls, young women, and their
communities. Each Girl Scout who completes activities will join in WAGGGS'
international movement of 10 million girls who together are advocating for
themselves and others, both locally and globally--one of the Take Action outcomes
(PDF) detailed in the Girl Scout Leadership Experience.
