meet&greet and talk Fair Chance, introduction in basics of Fair Chance concept

Dear All,

Please consider to join in todays Meetup Wed Jan 25

I´m going to introduce basic elements of Fair Chance program, see below, including those 6 strategic components as follows:

Leaderkids

Promoting mental health and development of personal leadership.

Leaderkids is a variant of ILD adapted to children in pre-pubertal age (8-11 years old) The aim is to prevent onset of high level of anxiety, depression, stress which usually starts in this age and can establish lifelong handicap (20% – 25% of all children on Earth experience this pressure). This program can also be used for prevention and management of bullying, personal development and personal leadership for kids.

Wikimara

Wikimara is an inventor marathon where children from the whole word lead professional development teams towards completion of innovative healthcare solutions for kids in need .

Amazingly, it is possible to achieve such extraordinary results in 24 hours which is proved by many so called “Hackatons”.

Wikimara is such an event which will be arranged Dec 2-3 2017 in Stockholm Sweden.

It is usual that developers use technology “borrowed” from computer games and virtual reality and kids “just love it” J But the main thing that those inventions are useful in everyday life of children in need.

Know Now (Learning)

Educational concept based on children´s native curiosity and their inherent thirst for knowledge.

We are inspired by Sugata Mitra “Hole in the wall” project, by Digital Room school and other projects recognizing need to reform education and adjust it to contemporary demands and conditions and also proving that non-traditional models of education, driven by kids themselves produce astonishing results compare to “old school” methods.

Also possibility of professional guidance in specific knowledge domain is addressed by establishing of ThinkTank – experts in different areas donating some hour of their time helping kids to understand some specific knowledge.

Good Food

Good Food is a cookery competition, broadcasted by the contestants themselves by live streaming their presentations via mobile real-time streaming app (for example Periscope). Those presentations are also published on dedicated Good Food website.

Contestants (who are nine- to twelve-year-olds) are recruited by dedicated campaign via children and youth oriented social media platforms.

Good Food let kids discover tasty, healthy food and let them make this food by themselves, together with peers.

Fair Chance Cup (FCC)

It is well known that bad physical condition is one of major negative factors contributing to limiting social performance and consequently leading to social degradation

FCC is a program aimed to support children´s physical development in form of web streamed street basketball tournament.

Children encouraged to participate in regular physical training like for example playing basket and conduct relevant physical training according to web based training program at least 3 time a week.

Winners of local tournaments compete for Fair Chance Cup Award once a year
