Issue 1 - Welcome Edition – Saturday 29 July
Programme Preview: Debt & Aid
What’s it like to live in debt? What if you have to decide whether education or healthcare are more important? What happens if you make the wrong decision? Will corrupt leaders hinder your family's progress? What about all that aid for new weapons and all those loans you owe?
Come to Debt and Aid where everyday these decisions will be played out in a mass wide game featuring the Global Bank, the United Nations, an international media corporations and ten different countries from around the world, each with its own perspective. Each team will face challenges and temptations on their route to financial success and happiness!
Debt and aid is a complex issue but here at the Global Village we have designed a fabulous activity accessible for all! In addition to the simulation game, we have a series of wonderful workshops that will help you explore particular issues in more depth.
