Our story begins with the Global Issues

Network. GIN's vision is to empower youth

around the world to develop and implement

sustainable solutions for humanitarian and

environmental issues which affect present

day civilization. This network was created by

a group of students and teachers living in

Europe, after being inspired by the book, “20

Global Problems, 20 Years to Solve Them”

written by Jean-Francois Rischard.

GINDO was subsequently created in 2009, not

long after JIS students returned from the first

annual GIN Conference in Beijing. Since then,

four conferences have been held, and countless

students from all across Indonesia have had the

chance to raise awareness and collaborate on

global issues that affect their local communities.

The essence of our conferences are to inspire

students to collaborate in finding solutions to

make our world a better place. This year, we

have even introduced the ActionX component of

the conference to really inspire participants to

start making a change.

Albert Pine once said, "What we do for ourselves

dies with us. What we do for others and the

world remains and is immortal.” Let the mark

you leave on this earth be one which has

affected our civilization for the better, even if it

may be just one minuscule action.

GINDO?WHATIS

GIN’s vision is to empower youth

around the world to develop and

implement sustainable solutions for

humanitarian and environmental

issues

Page 7: Conference booklet

A lot has happened in

the five years since

GINDO was

established. GINDO

has constantly been

bold with its innovative

ideas and has, from

the start, seeked to inspire.

While the previous years have certainly inspired

those who were fortunate enough to attend the

conferences, they have not always been

successful in sparking immediate action. Tired of

being labeled as ‘all words and no action’, this

year’s conference is aimed to provide hands-on

experience to all participants as well as to focus

on maintaining the projects and networks we will

build throughout the conference.

With new concepts such as the Passion Fair,

Passion Groups, ActionX and the GINDO Board,

we aim to not only build strong partnership

between schools across Indonesia but to also

inspire and empower them into taking action.

What I’ve learned from the past four GINDO

conferences is that we’re never too small, too

young, or too inexperienced to change the world.

In fact, being fueled with innovation, passion and

determination, I would argue that small people

can indeed do big things. In every GINDO

conference I’ve helped organize, present during

or participated in, I always came back feeling

inspired and even more eager to make the

change I want to see in the world.

Often we see ourselves stuck in the position

between not wanting to make a change and not

knowing how to, and that’s what GINDO aims to

overturn. We hope that the partnerships we

came to build and the ideas we came to make do

not simply stop after the conference but rather

that we work towards sustaining them. We want

to demolish the wall between age, ethnicity,

gender and status and become a truly effective

platform where students, organizations and

corporates work together towards forming a

better world.

On behalf of the SWA and JIS GINDO team, I

hope that the little things that go wrong --

because things will go wrong -- during the

conference won’t become the things that you

take back, but instead that you take all the good

things; the friends you made, the ideas you built,

the services you did or perhaps the food you

were forced to eat. Let GINDO be the knot that

ties passion and action together. Most

importantly, talk to inspire, walk to empower and

run to change!

-Elena President of GINDO at SWA

NOTE FROM THE HOST

Lie

Page 8: Conference booklet

My journey with GIN

started five years

ago, and I am so

glad it did. I was

introduced to this

movement at an

early age, and it has helped form the person I am

today, and the person I want to be going into the

future. This is now the fifth conference I’m

participating in, and it has been incredible seeing

how we’ve transformed and spread the

movement.

At GINDO, we hope to provide opportunities for

participants from all around Indonesia to be able

to change the world for the better in a

sustainable way.!The aim of the conference is to

foster creativity, knowledge, and a sense of

global partnership in participants, and we hope

you will have felt this way at the end of Sunday.

It doesn’t matter what you’re interested in, what

you’re passionate about, or what you enjoy

doing, as long as you are passionate and excited

to make a change in this world.

At GINDO this year, I encourage you to try and

meet as many other people as possible, and to

share your interests, goals and visions with

them. Hopefully, this will amount to a new

partnership and an adventure into a great

service project.

It has been quite a tumultuous ride planning this

conference since we have completely

reconfigured how our conference works, and

we’ve tried to reach out to more schools around

Indonesia. At the end of the day, though, it has all

been worth it. On behalf of the JIS and SWA

committees, I hope you have an incredible time

this weekend, that you learn something new, and

that you make lasting friendships and

connections with at least one other person! Let

us all keep this year’s theme in our heads during

this weekend. Don’t forget to “talk to empower,

walk to inspire, [and] run to change!”

-Priyasha Madhavan President of GINDO at JIS

FROM THE CO-HOST

Page 9: Conference booklet

ERADICATE EXTREME POVERTY AND HUNGER

The 1st millennium development goal was founded to eradicate

extreme poverty and hunger throughout the world. It’s aim, divided into 3 smaller targets, is to ensure that the proportion of population below $1 per day was halved, and effectively halve the proportion of people who suffer from hunger as well. In doing just this, the UN hopes to also achieve decent employment for women, men, and young people.

ACHIEVE UNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATION

The 2nd Millennium development goal was founded

to ensure that all children (girls and boys) could complete a full course of primary schooling by 2015. By virtue, this goal is meant to relieve gender disparities in not only the world of academia, but emphasize the equality in aptitude in both the male and female genders. This would entail the complete enrollment in primary school education of all children across all continents and subsequently, the completion of that education.

PROMOTE GENDER EQUALITY AND EMPOWER WOMEN

The 3rd Millennium development goal was founded to eliminate gender disparity in primary and secondary education, preferably by 2005, and in all levels of education no later than 2015. This development goal recognizes that in some regions, education

remains elusive, and that poverty can be a major barrier to education. Considering that women are largely relegated to more vulnerable forms of unemployment, this goal seeks to eradicate educational barriers towards girls in hopes to raise political awareness and power in women across all nations.

REDUCE CHILD MORTALITY

The 4th Millennium development goal was founded, principally, to reduce

the under-five mortality rate of all children between 1990 and 2015, by two thirds. The United Nations concedes that revitalizing efforts against pneumonia and diarrhea, while bolstering nutrition, could save millions. Generally, funding in the form of monetary aid should be maintained on a consistent basis towards NGO’s and programs worldwide, as momentum in this campaign is vital to its success.

IMPROVE MATERNAL HEALTH

The 5th Millennium development goal was founded to significantly reduce the

maternal mortality ratio by three quarters, and to achieve universal access to reproductive health. It’s evident that most maternal deaths throughout the world can be avoided with the proper precautions. This is especially the case in Southern Asian and sub-Saharan African nations where most women deliver without skilled care. What needs to be done is the abridgement of this rural-urban gap of skilled birth care, and that adequate funding and family planning must be paramount to the livelihoods of these individuals.

COMBAT HIV/AIDS, MALARIA AND OTHER DISEASES

The 6th Millennium development goal is primarily

concerned with halting and reversing the spread of HIV/AIDS throughout the world, and achieving universal access to treatment for HIV/AIDS for all those who need it. HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency virus, and can subsequently develop into the disease of AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome). HIV/AIDS has become a prevalent disease that has taken the lives of some 35 million people, and its path of death and despondency has left whole communities a sunder in its wake. !More than 8 million people in low- and middle-income countries were receiving antiretroviral therapy at the end of 2011 throughout the world. However, the greatest source of fear lies in the fact that more than two-thirds of new HIV infections were found in sub-Saharan Africa.

ENSURE ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY

The 7th Millennium development goal is meant to allow the

integration of sustainable development principles into country policies and programs and reverse the loss of environmental resources. Thus, it seeks to reduce the loss of biodiversity, halve the proportion of the population without sustainable access to safe drinking water, and improve the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers. Though the rate of deforestation shows sign of decreasing, the world must still be on high alert for any body that threatens the acceleration of climate change through the destruction of vital rain forests. By making considerable efforts to enhance our local

environment, this goal opens up individuals to greater standards of living.

BUILD GLOBAL PARTNERSHIP FOR DEVELOPMENT

The 8th Millennium development goal was founded to further develop an open, rule-based, predictable, non-discriminatory trading and financial system. In lieu of the 2008 financial collapse, many countries residing outside the western world have been cautious as to not feel the full effects of the economic vacuum. By allowing developing countries to gain greater access to markets of developed countries, we see risk in trading to be lowered, as the aggregate risks associated with a broader trading sphere will allow developing countries to fully benefit from tariff reductions on agricultural products. Alongside with greater trade and cooperation with the private sector, new technologies will become available in the form of information and communication devices and mechanisms. This is supported by the clear disparity with those who have higher speed Internet connections in developed nations and those who do not in respective developing nations.
