  • Årsapport for Spejdernes Nordiske Samarbejdskomite (Nsk) Og Nsk Sekretariatet Året 2014
    ÅRSAPPORT FOR SPEJDERNES NORDISKE SAMARBEJDSKOMITE (NSK) OG NSK SEKRETARIATET ÅRET 2014 HJEMMESIDEN – www.speidereinorden.org Hjemmesiden har været meget mere aktiv, og var bedre brugt af de nordiske korps/forbund i at formidle informationer om forskellige aktiviteter m.m. I efteråret begyndte forberedelserne for den Nordiske spejderkonference som holdes i Island i maj 2015, og er hjemmesiden brugt til at modtage registrering og formidle information om program, konference centret, hoteller m.m. Alle konferencens dokumenter vil også blive lagt derind og blive tilgængelige for konferencens deltagere og alle der er interesseret i Nordisk spejdning. VERDENSKONFERENCERNE I 2014 blev der holdt to verdens konferencer. 1) World Assocication of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) holdt verdenskonference 4.-9. juli 2014 i Hong Kong; 2) World Organisation of the Scout Movement (WOSM) holdt verdenskonference 11.-15. august 2015, i Ljubljana, Slovenien. Forberedelsesmøder Forberedelsesmøde er nødvendigt for NSK for at forberede og introducere sager på dagsorden på verdens konferencerne. Dette sikrer at alle de Nordiske lande har den nødvendige information og kan dermed vise støtte til hinanden i den globale spejderverden. Den 15. Juni 2014 mødtes alle internationale kommissærer (IC) WAGGGS der sidder NSK komitéen i København for at forberede det nordiske arbejde på WAGGGS verdens konferencen. Sekretariatets opgaver på konferencerne blev planlagt således: - organisere et NSK informationsmøde i starten af konferencen - organisere og koordinere informations formidling mellem de nordiske lande på konference der var relevante at alle fik overblik over. - hjælpe i at koordinere fælles opgaver i spejderpolitikken. Valg af kandidater til WAGGGS verden komitéen. - En meget kompetent kandidat stillede op fra Finland og fik hun en generel støtte fra hele Norden.

  • Årsapport for Spejdernes Nordiske Samarbejdskomite (Nsk) Og Nsk Sekretariatet Året 2013 Overdragelse Af Sekretariatet Sept
    ÅRSAPPORT FOR SPEJDERNES NORDISKE SAMARBEJDSKOMITE (NSK) OG NSK SEKRETARIATET ÅRET 2013 OVERDRAGELSE AF SEKRETARIATET SEPT 2012 På Årsmødet i København i september 2012 overdrog Finland NSK sekretariatet til Island, da Island tog over formandskabet i det nordiske samarbejde. Det dengang nyformede NSK sekretariat består af tre aktive islandske spejdere, Dagmar Yr Olafsdottir ordfører, Dagbjört Brynjarsdóttir og Guðrún Sigríður Ólafsdóttir. Desværre lykkedes det ikke at finde en repræsentativ mandlig kandidat. HJEMMESIDEN – www.speidereinorden.org Hjemmesiden havde været inaktiv og ikke informerende i lang tid, og småkedelig må vi indrømme. Derfor var det et af de første projekter at lave om på denne så den nordiske spejder kunne nemt finde sig frem til den information han eller hun havde brug for. Sekretariatet holdt et møde i Island med Ole Kr. Valle, som havde på tidligere tidspunkt været administrator på hjemmesiden og kendte dennes opsætning og serverinformation godt. Sekretariatet fik også it og hjemmeside specialist, Birgir Erlendsson, som kender godt wordpress, da dette var det form vi syntes var mest imødekommende og nemmest at arbejde med. Vi satte deadline 1. februar og det lykkedes os at få hjemmesiden opdateret til det nye format til tiden. Den kan nu bruges som nyhedskilde for det nordiske samarbejde. Vi lægger links på facebook NSK gruppe hver gang hjemmesiden får nyheder eller ny information, for at sikre at alle kan følge med og motiverer at folk bruge den i det formål den har. Hjemmesiden har i året 2013 været i konstant opdatering og forbedringer sker tit. Den server der blev brugt fandtes ikke længere og det viste sig at hakkere havde hakket sig ind på den gamle hjemmeside over 200 gange.

  • Jää Seisma Sa, Mu Eestimaa!”: Voices of Nationalism and Cultural Continuity in the Toronto Estonian Girl Guides, 1949-1972
    “JÄÄ SEISMA SA, MU EESTIMAA!”: VOICES OF NATIONALISM AND CULTURAL CONTINUITY IN THE TORONTO ESTONIAN GIRL GUIDES, 1949-1972 KRISTI KUKK SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY NIPISSING UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES NORTH BAY, ONTARIO © Kristi Kukk August 2013 Abstract “‘Jää seisma sa, mu Eestimaa!’: Voices of Nationalism and Cultural Continuity in the Toronto Estonian Girl Guides, 1949-1972”1 examines the stories of ten Estonian women in Canada who participated in the Toronto Estonian Girl Guides between 1949 and 1972. Through their individual oral histories as well as songs, material culture, and yearbooks from the organization, this master’s research paper explores the ways in which the Toronto Estonian Girl Guides functioned as a source of cultural continuity for the Estonian community in Toronto after the Second World War, demonstrating that processes of assimilation are often not as straightforward as traditionally perceived in the historiography. 1 “Jää seisma sa, mu Eestimaa!” (Stay standing, my Estonia) is a lyric from: K Türnpu and P. Grünfeldt. “Gaidide Hümn,” in Mälestusi Gaidirajalt: Eesti Gaidide Liit, ed. Siiri Puust (Toronto: Oma Press Limited, 1988), 4. iv Acknowledgements I would first like to thank the Ontario Graduate Scholarship Program, Nipissing University, and the Estonian Foundation of Canada for funding this research project. I would also like to acknowledge the various professors, colleagues, and family members who have shaped this project and have helped me throughout my university career. I would first like to thank my committee: Katrina Srigley, Anne Clendinning, and Lindsay McMaster, for their thoughtful feedback and constructive criticism of my MRP.

  • Mezinárodní Rozměr Skautingu
    Mezinárodní rozměr skautingu Zahraniční odbor Junáka Mezinárodní rozměr skautingu / 1 2 / Mezinárodní rozměr skautingu Milí čtenáři, brožurka, kterou držíte v rukou, pojednává o podstatném rozměru skautského života - snaží se ukázat a odtajnit dalekosáhlé možnosti českých skautů a skautek ve svě- tovém skautském hnutí. Tato knížka chce názorně ukázat, že na světě není pouze necelých 50.000 junáků, ale ve skutečnosti bezmála 40 milionů našich bratrů a sester. Vždyť skutečnost, že „nejsme sami“, že skautský program a skautská myšlenka je pří- tomna ve všech demokratických zemích světa, je přece ohromnou výzvou a skvělou příležitostí také pro nás. Překročit horizont naší kotliny je tak jednoduché… Vydejme se společně na daleké i blízké skautské stezky. Se zahraničním odborem je snadné naplňovat základní skautskou myšlenku a překo- návat sám sebe: strávit několik týdnů či měsíců jako dobrovolník na nějaké skautské základně, sám, odkázaný jen na svou schopnost domluvit se cizím jazykem nebo pro- stě „rukama nohama“, natočit film a ukázat ho skautům a skautkám po celé Evropě, zažít Silvestr na thajské pláži s desetitisíci skauty a skautkami z celého světa, pozvat na svůj tábor zahraniční skauty a ukázat jim naše způsoby táboření, probudit se ve švédských lesích, švýcarských Alpách nebo na řeckém ostrově společně s ostatními skauty a poobědvat jejich národní masové kuličky, lahodné fondue nebo tzatziky, bě- hem nezapomenutelných zážitků si vytvořit skutečná přátelství na celý život… V prvních dvou kapitolách této příručky naleznete jednoduchý a snad přehledný popis možností, které před vámi leží, chcete-li vyjet „skautsky“ do zahraničí (kapitola 1) nebo chcete-li prozkoumávat tento nezastupitelný rozměr skautské výchovy z tepla domova vaší klubovny (kapitola 2).
