PR - Youth Fest 2017

It is with much honour and excitement that we announce a successful Youth Fest 2017 executed by ACT: Fiji in collaboration with Fiji National University (FNU) & Fiji School of Medicine (FSM) student association and World Peace Initiative (WPI).

Youth Fest 2017 had five major events take place through out the week in the lead up to International Youth Day (IYD) on 12 August.

The theme for  IYD 2017 was Youth Building Peace therefore we started the week by commemorating the 72nd Hiroshima Peace event. With assistance from Japan Pacific Alumni Association (JPAA) the event was organized at the Japan Pacific ICT theatre at USP. Speakers at the event shared on Peace and role of youth in achieving Peace, personal experiences as they visited Hiroshima in Japan and shared more about the Nuclear blast that happened in 1945, followed by a meditation session.

The Thoughts Aloud programme took place on Thursday at the FSM Pasifika campus and saw performers share spoken words, poetry and songs. The theme included; gender equality, environment, human rights, rape, personal choices, sexual orientation, mental health and technology.

Friday was the Lunch Box event whereby the group shared lunch packs (food, fruit and water) with the less fortunate on the streets of Suva. Donations were received from the University of the South Pacific (USP) Faculty of Science, Technology and Environment (FSTE), Research Innovation and International (RI&I), Department of Development, marketing, communications and alumni (DMCA) and contributions from ACT: Fiji members and friends.

The week concluded with the Youth Advocacy Workshop held at the FSM Pasifika Campus from 9am - 3pm. The sessions included; Theatre for advocacy, Human Rights, Multiculturalism, Social Issues and using creative ideas to advocate on these issues. The sessions were very interactive and as feedback participants shared that they enjoyed the sessions very much.
"I have attended many workshops but never an Advocacy workshop." shared one participant.
We are in discussions to host similar workshops with other organizations that were represented at the workshop. This was not only an opportunity for the ACT team to share creative arts for advocacy but also network with other groups for future collaboration.
Later that evening was the Mai Talanoa panel discussion.
Mr. Elvis Kumar was named as the Youth of Honour for his work in the area of Peace.
The speakers on the two panels shared on; Youth and Education; Mental Health (and suicide prevention); Peace; Environment and Climate Change; International Youth Engagement and Youth volunteering and Artivism. The discussions were rich and the networking opportunity was a great one.

PR: 72nd Hiroshima Peace Memorial Event

Date: 7 August 2017
Venue: Japan Pacific ICT Theatre, USP.

72nd Hiroshima Peace Memorial Event

6 August 1945 a day to be remembered in Hiroshima, Japan and across the world as the day a Nuclear Atomic Bomb devastated the lives of thousands. 72 years later and the few surviving members of the horrendous blast can still recollect their memory as if the event happened yesterday. 

Members of ACT: Fiji decided to begin their programme for Youth Fest by commemorating this day first as the theme for the International Youth Day 2017 is Youth Building Peace. In collaboration with the Embassy of Japan in Fiji, Japan Pacific Alumni Association (JPAA) and the World Peace Initiative (WPI) a Peace event was hosted from 10am - 11.30am at the Japan Pacific ICT Theatre, USP. 

The event was opened by a welcome address from the founder and coordinator of ACT: Fiji, Ms. Elisha Bano, who highlighted her experience to Hiroshima last year and shared photos from her visit to the Hiroshima Peace Museum. She spoke about what peace meant to her and the importance of youth working together towards achieving peace. 

"We as a youth group decided to begin our celebration for youth by marking this day first. Peace is important. Inner peace is important first. We must be at peace with our self before we can promote peace with others. This Youth Fest is important for us as this is the first of its kind that we are hosting. And we hope to continue with such initiatives and achieve peace with collaboration, tolerance and sharing"

Following this was the address by the First Secretary of Embassy of Japan in Fiji and shared with the audience more details on this event. He also shared information about the JENESYS Exchange programme and scholarship opportunities given to Pacific Island Youth from the Government of Japan. Such diplomacy ties are helping our countries grow together in harmony.

Furthermore, a Peace and Meditation session was conducted by Mr. Elvis Kumar the Pacific Coordinator of the World Peace Initiative (WPI). 

"As the theme for this year's International Youth Day is Youth Building Peace, I urge all young people to work towards finding their inner peace first and have an appropriate mindset to work towards building peace in the society".

Before the vote of thanks was shared the audience from Political activist Mr. Ben Daveta who shared the importance of youth engagement and participation. He stressed; "You dont have to be political to be an activist." He further elaborated on youth needing to engage more in events such these organized for them. 

The event marked the opening of Youth Fest and the next event will be help on Thursday at the FSM Pasifika Campus. The Thoughts Aloud event will see a number of youths share their creative pieces in the form of Storytelling, poetry, spoken words and skits.

PR: OBR Pacific 2017

One Billion Rising (OBR) Pacific team hosted a Spoken Words evening last night at the USP Performance Space, kindly sponsored by the FALE department at USP.

The evening was opened by Charlotte Taylor, the Chief Guest, who is a lecturer at the University and the chairperson of the Graduate Women of Fiji (GWF).

“THIS YEAR, WE ARE RISING IN SOLIDARITY AGAINST THE EXPLOITATION OF WOMEN. Women in all fields and this are more so in the field of STEM. And this is the focus of GWF to providing opportunities to girls to pursue their dreams of achieving higher quality education in STEM and to feel safe; emotionally socially and financially, in their choice.”

MC's, performers and the team behind the scene 

During the event young women shared spoken words pieces that they have written sharing various issues that concern them. These ranged from violence against women, inequality, traditions, religion, catcalling, sex and vocabulary. While the event saw some regulars to the OBR event it was refreshing to see some new faces participate in the Spoken words event as well as in the audience.

“OBR has been celebrated in Fiji since 2013. I am honored to have been a part of it since inception and I think each year I look forward to this with much eagerness. It is a platform for us, young women, to raise our voices and speak our minds. We have the opportunity to use this safe space and change minds. We are truly using creative means of advocating on social issues. It is a powerful space.” says Elisha Bano, Coordinator OBR Pacific.

“It was an amazing space where newcomers to spoken words felt comfortable enough to share their pieces, express themselves and inspire others, performer Sian Rolls.  

The event was organized by volunteers from Advocacy (through) Creative Techniques (ACT) and Emerging Leaders Forum Alumni (ELFA).

“Such events empower women to share their honest feelings about various issues. We have recorded the performances and now we will upload them to our YouTube channel and share it with an even wider audience.” Aatika Patel, Media Liaison, ACT.

“It was great to see a lot of new faces. The performances were powerful, emotional and epic which made it a lovely night and safe space,” says co-MC Chandra Fisiiahi of ELFA.

The event concluded with the demonstration of the ever so empowering Break the Chain dance routine being performed and was possible with the sponsorships received from USP FALE, DJ Skitz and Phoenix designs.

Na Koro Market: Sept 2016

Na Koro Market: September 2016

ACT: Fj members are now volunteering at the Na Koro Market. Why? We simply love the idea of this market where the entire family can come and enjoy. Children can play while parents can shop. The entire family is able to enjoy the great outdoors, listen to some amazing music, shop and relax at the same time. Its the ideal picnic in the park. 

This month, September, ACT: FJ focused on the Sustainable Development Goal #16: Peace, justice and strong institutions. We launched our "Once Upon A Story" session with the little ones and read to them a story that we wrote. 

The story uses an engaging and interactive style where the children are asked questions in between and after the story. We, as the storyteller, get a sense of what the children felt at the different stages of the story and what they would when in such a situation. We must admit the children we engaged with at the market were very creative and peaceful thinking. Judging from the enthusiasm from the children we will surely prepare a new story for next month and continue with this project.

The ACT: FJ volunteers also assisted Nature Fiji with their childrens games. The childrens at the Na Koro market sure know how to keep you on your toes. However, the games from Nature Fiji are excellent way of teaching the children about endangered animals in Fiji. 

The Na Koro Market takes place on the first Sunday of every month at the Suva Museum. The fun filled day with vendors selling food, handicrafts, clothes, shoes, books and so much more is a great place to come for Sunday brunch, lunch or even snacks. Additional to the wonderful stalls there are stalls that cater for kids activities. This month kids engaged in some woodwork, quilting, button art, face-painting and storytelling. With the live music it was really a place where everyone in the family could enjoy. 

Suva Museum has a great lawn with ample trees providing shade and the large lawn area where families enjoyed on large mats and on the park benches. 

You can read about the event in the Fiji Times as well and we thank Fiji Times for talking to us and mentioning our work here at the market. 












If you missed out on the September market be sure to come by to the October Market which will be held on 2 October 2016. 

Our video for the market can be seen on our YouTube channel Nakoro Market September

2016 QYL Residential Week (PS)

Press Statement:
19/07/2016

2016 QYL Residential Week 

The 2016 Queens Young Leaders residential week took place from 18 - 25 June. Participants traveled from across the Commonwealth countries to participate in the week long programme. 
Founder/Coordinator of ACT:Fj, Ms. Elisha Bano, won the Queens Young Leaders award in 2015 but was unable to travel, however the QYL team ensured she traveled this year to participate in the residential week and to collect her award from Her Majesty, the Queen. "When I finally reached London I felt at ease. That's when it really hit me that this is happening," said Ms. Bano. 

Ms. Bano and Luisa Tuilau (QYL 2016, Fiji) traveled together and represented Fiji. The main highlight of the residential week was of course receiving awards from Her Majesty, The Queen. "Words can't explain how I felt. A few of the staff came to check up on us to ensure we were ok. I was nervous and excited. I kept thinking over and over what I will say to Her Majesty. I mean I have waited for over a year for this moment. And it was such a special moment. She was so sweet. I wish I could chat with her for a longer period of time. I still feel it was all a dream. It is truly a moment I will cherish for the rest of my life." 

Elisha Bano (QYL, Fiji, 2015) receiving her award from Her Majesty, the Queen, at the Buckingham Palace. 

The 64 winners of the Queens Young Leader award (2015/2016) with Her Majesty, the Queen, Sir John Major, Prince Harry and David Beckham at the Buckingham Palace. 

The programme also included visits to leading UK Charities such as UpRising, Reprezent, Media Trust and Centre-point, Twitter headquarters in UK, BBC, #10 Downing street, UK's leading advertising agency AMV BBDO, PWC, Standard Charters, Commonwealth secretariat and the University of Cambridge where the participants spent two days. 

"During our time at Cambridge we had sessions with some of the people who have contributed to the Leading Change course. While all the sessions were great, informative and engaging my favourite three have to be; Fredrik Haren, Hazel & Andy's design class, and Oli Barrett's session. I will be sharing why these are my favourite sessions and more details about the other sessions on my personal blog in the days and weeks to come," shared Ms. Bano. 

Luisa Tuilau (QYL, Fiji, 2016); Fredik Haren (author of The Idea Book) & Elisha Bano (QYL, Fiji, 2015)

The residential programme was an opportunity for the participants to network, collaborate, share ideas and skills and take their projects a step further. During the residential week programme the QYL's have gotten to know each other better and have shared ideas to help each others projects. 

"A few of us have already started to discuss possible ways to collaborate and we are keeping in touch. The internet just makes it so much easier to share our ideas and communicate from the different parts of the world that we reside in".

Ms. Bano and three other 2015 QYL's were accommodated this year during the residential week and they have developed a link between the alumni (2015) and the 2016 QYL's. "Some members of the alumni came to Cambridge and conducted a session with the rest of us. Since I didn't get to meet them last year it was great to have this opportunity this year." 

It wasn't all meetings and discussion sessions for the QYLs. The QYL's were hosted for dinner at the Australia House, after the award ceremony at Buckingham Palace and had a great dinner experience at The Shard. The view from Level 24 was simply magnificent and the QYL's dressed up for this fine dining experience. 

A breathtaking view from level 24, The Shard. 

"We went punting in Cambridge and sightseeing in London. We visited the London Eye, Big Ben, Piccadilly Circus, Oxford Street, ate at Jamie Olivers restaurant and managed to do some shopping. One evening about 14 of us went to see the night scene of London and it was an amazing night. We saw the London Eye at night, it looks great all lit up. We caught the tube and the double deck bus. We had a great time."
 
Now that Ms. Bano has returned she is conducting sessions with the group members of ACT:Fj and taking them through what she learnt over the course of the residential week. The group is working on project ideas for the coming months and will be focusing a lot more on the Sustainable Development Goals as this was one of the main discussions they had with the Secretary General of the Commonwealth Secretariat. 

"We spent some time listing which goals our various projects were involved in and during our visit to the Commonwealth Secretariat we (in smaller groups) came up with a recommendation document that will be presented to the Secretary General. The SG was very inspiring and motivated us to get involved in the SDG's. Many of us are already discussing projects to collaborate. If you have a group out there (in Suva, Fiji or even in the Pacific) let us know how you are working towards achieving the SDG's and maybe we can look at ways to collaborate and network. I am sure we can learn from each other and share what we know and have."

The QYL's with the Secretary General of the Commonwealth Secretariat. 

The Queens Young Leaders sure have their work cut out for them and the search is now on for the 2017 Queens Young Leaders. To apply or nominate check out QYL website
