GirlGuiding New Zealand is proudly girl-led. Groups of girl representatives enable the voice of girls to be heard both within and outside GirlGuiding NZ at a local and national level. These girls are the representatives of all girl members in the organisation views and have opportunities to develop an agreed position to advocate for themselves and others within GirlGuiding NZ or add their voice to local, national and global issues that matter to all girls and young women.
The National Girl Advisory and Participation (GAP) Group is made up of nine 15-17 year olds who promote the views of girls within the organisation on a range of topics including girl opportunities, programme content, and delivery of events. The National GAP Group works to reach consensus regarding the representative view which is then put forward to GirlGuiding NZ governance groups, as well as being voting members at the annual GirlGuiding NZ National Forum.
The Ranger Advocacy Panel (RAP) includes up to ten 15-17 year olds who represent and promote the views of girls in New Zealand by finding out what matter to them, then advocating for positive change on their behalf.
Congratulations to the following girls who will be joining these vital girl-led groups.
