GGIP@GA Conference

GGIP Paper Chain to support Child Poverty

The Issue

The relevance of geography can be shown in simple but unacceptable statistics.

“Every child has the right to go to school. But there are 80 million children who miss out because of poverty.”

What can we do?

We can make a huge paper chain!

At the GA Conference bring your schools paper chain to the GGIP stall and we will create one huge paper chain. The GGIP will send the huge chain to Dr. Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor and currently in charge of the G8 and European Union.

The website is excellent many ideas and resources! Here is a guide on how to make your paper chain!
