​Seit dem Beginn der Begegnungen zwischen Jugendgruppen aus Mtae und Minden im Jahr 1996  ist die Idee entstanden, Jugendlichen als Weltbürger/innen Unterschiede und vor allem Gemeinsamkeiten in den Kulturen, den Religionen, der Wirtschaft und der Bildung, Auswirkungen der gemeinsamen Kolonialgeschichte erfahrbar werden zu lassen, mit ihnen fremde und eigene Entwicklungsziele zu reflektieren und dialogisch die Grundlagen eines Zusammenlebens im "Weltdorf" zu buchstabieren: Respekt, Wertschätzung der Andersartigkeit, Selbstreflexion.

Association des Guides du Rwanda

Rwanda

In partnership the AGR (Rwanda Girl Guides Association) and the Girl Guides of Germany (Pfadfinderinnenschaft St. Georg – PSG) launched an exchange programme entitled "Right to Water", aiming at raising awareness on the importance of water as a resource, it also advocates for its sustainable consumption. Rwandan participants first attended the national camp and project meetings in Germany in August 2017 to learn how water is used and sustained in that country.  The young women participated in several workshops on water, worked together and started to become a team. Once back in Rwanda, they formed a pool of young leaders from 16 districts which implemented a national action plan in their own districts, which mostly consisted on raising awareness on water responsible use, demonstration of how to fight against erosion and provision of basis material for water retention, etc. The project's first phase ended in July. The PSG team came to Rwanda for a summer camp 2018 during which a mutual exchange of information and experience with Rwandan Girl Guides took place. Multiple workshops on the use of water, games on water, the responsible use, upcycling etc. had been prepared for the camp. The group visited different communities in which the Rwandan participant had worked on the responsible use of water. The German participants created a workbook with activities and background information for other young people in their communities. The participants connected via social media and messenger services throughout the project and formed small working groups.
Projects starting before January 2021 were funded through the former funding line weltwärts exchange projects.
