Stay Curious - Sustainable Lifestyles Challenge by Sofonie Dala- Angola. Day 14. Happy International Day of the Girl Child 2021

 Stay Curious 

Embracing a life of constant learning, adventure and curiosity


Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen,

Today is the 14th day of our challenge and we would like to thank you for being here with us!

This is the only campaign that help activate sustainable living for people. The challenge has shown that small actions, taken collectively, can have a positive impact on the planet.


Why the key to lifelong learning is developing curiosity


Even in the midst of uncertainty, it’s important to take time to pause. We can use this time to reflect on our path in life and to develop our curiosity, which ultimately is the key to lifelong learning, 

Did you know that if you embrace a life of constant learning, adventure and curiosity, your well-being and quality of life will increase?
Adopt a lifelong learning approach to not only enhance your mental health and overall well-being, but also to keep your mind engaged and interested in what the wonderful world has to offer. This also applies to discovering new ways you can integrate nature into your daily life!


Reading, even for short periods of time, can dramatically reduce stress levels! So embrace a life-long learning approach to enhance your overall well-being and discover what the wonderful world has to offer. 

Learning is the eternal gift. Every single day provides us all with so many opportunities to learn and grow. Life is one big adventure in so many ways and when we adopt a curious and open mindset it’s amazing what we can discover.



International Day of the Girl Child is observed annually by the United Nations on October 11 to honour and encourage female children. This day encourages additional opportunities for females and draws attention to gender inequality throughout the world.

Our everyday motto is: "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food"

Curiosity. What is palm date?

What if you could improve your dancing through the food you eat?

Today we are spotlighting a little dancer Flo. At the same time she is breaking the palm dates to eat its seed. 



Are you okay Flo?
I'm fine thanks. 
What are you doing now?
 I'm dancing. 
What is it that you're breaking with the stone over there?
 It is the palm date.
 But why do you break it? 
To eat the coconut, its seed.



Dates are the fruit of the date palm tree, which is grown in many tropical regions of the world.

COVID-19 shutdowns will disrupt early learning, formal education and livelihoods

The coronavirus pandemic could threaten decades of progress for gender equality and girls' education. For many households, lockdowns have seen incomes and savings disappear, meaning they will simply not be able to pay school fees — and where they can, boys may be prioritized.


Our today's guest is an 8 years old girl, her name is Ruth and she will share with us her experiences during lock-downs and how coronavirus has affected her life. 

This little girl confessed that the coronavirus pandemic has delayed her life, she can't go to school, she doesn't see her teacher and her classmates for a long time. She's very sad about this situation.

To continue learning, she reviews all old homework assignments and reads books. 

She recommends that the governors should put in the schools water buckets with soap for students to wash their hands, create sanitary conditions and social distance.

Many girls might not return to school 


“By trying to mitigate the risk of families falling into extreme poverty ... we hope to help mitigate the risk of those families keeping their children, especially their girls, out of school once they reopen.”


The Anatomy of Action outlines the top level changes any individual can make to support the growing shift to global sustainability.

By making individual changes to what food we eat, the stuff we buy, how we spend our money, how we move around and what we do for fun, we can bring about new ways of living that have more positive planet impacts.
