In 2018 we are going to change the world. We are going to tackle one of the greatest global challenges there is – the world’s garbage!
Next leaders academy will take place in Tallinn, 23 – 26 January. For more information and registration contact Valeria Stulova, valeria.stulova@letsdoitworld.org.
For one day, the world will be focused on one cause with the most amazing results – a clean, waste-free and healthy world, and a renewed belief that together we can solve global problems. It will be the largest scale initiative in the history of humankind.
How?
By organizing the biggest and most ambitious project ever – World Cleanup Day 2018!
How to join?
We propose you, as a leader in JCI at a local and global level, to do it together with us.
1. Start a Let’s Do It! Cleanup in your country
Are you passionate about the idea of bringing your country together for a massive civic movement? Then we need you! The main thing we need from you? To think big, be passionate, and be positive! We have everything you need to get started right away and we’re here to help you build your campaign and offer support. A leader will:
become a member of the 150 most influential leaders in the world working for SDGs for the clean and healthy planet;
have an appointed mentor to consult regularly and visit at least twice a year; and
be invited to the Leaders Academy and World Congresses leading up to the year 2018 (participation costs covered).
The first Leader’s Academy takes place in Estonia, 24 – 26 August 2016.
The project will allow you to demonstrate how active citizenship in local communities can unite all sectors of society and people for a positive and sustainable global impact and:
A responsible project manager will oversee the campaign until 2018, ensure the maximum engagement of JCI Chapters nationwide and coordinate the cooperation with Jaycees internationally.
3. Join the existing team in your country
Check our page to get in contact with the team in your country. Everyone has a role to play in making the Let’s Do It! cleanup work. No matter who you are, where you come from, or what skills you have, if you’re determined to save the world from waste then your country needs you… join us today!
UN Sustainable Development Goals and Active Citizens Framework
The steps taken for a Clean World are directly addressing UN Sustainable Development Goals. Tackling waste pollution, adopting sustainable waste management systems, redesigning and innovating for maximum material recovery will play a significant role in reaching the goals for sustainable development. By building bridges between JCI and different partners in society, we will enable a new power of citizens who in an organized manner are able to continue conversations and actions after 2018 that encourage the adoption of sensible waste.
What is World Cleanup Day 2018?
On September 8th, 2018 a wave of cleanups will start in Japan, sweeping around the globe as the sun rises in every country until we can celebrate a clean world, cooperation and friendship in Hawaii at the evening of the same day!
We expect every country to engage at least 5% of its population in the cleanup action, to pick up millions of tons of illegal garbage. It’s very powerful and symbolic action to prove that we take responsibility in the countries we live in. Preparations should start now in order to have enough time to map all the illegal garbage with apps, engage people, organisations, and governments.
Be a true leader in your community and make a real impact on the world! This is your life-time chance to really change the world!
Initiate a project in your country and involve at least 5% of the population in the one day cleanup.
