Free Being Me – Action on Body Confidence

In 2017, WAGGGS launched the next phase of Free Being Me, its advocacy programme Action on Body Confidence, a co-educational programme for young people aged 7 – 25 which supports young people to plan and run their own body confidence advocacy projects.

Through, exciting and engaging age-appropriate activities, the biggest body confidence issues in their community are identified, and participants work together to plan a project which raises awareness and asks local decision makers for change.

Action on Body Confidence provides Rwandan girls and boys with the opportunity to make a lasting change to the way their society works, working towards a world where there is no pressureput on one’s looks/appearance .
