  • What is the role of the facilitator?

    The Facilitators are trained in-house in safeguarding, facilitation, co-creation, and therefore aligned with the values and tools used in CoC Playful Minds.

    The facilitators facilitate the 10 workshops and have the primary contact to the participants. The facilitators ensure safeguarding throughout the process. The facilitators will be physically present during the September Summit and act as facilitators and guides for the participants.

    All questions that do not concern the workshop process should be forwarded directly to the Children's General Assembly official e-mail. info@capitalofchildren.com 

  • Can a participant change group?

    Only under special circumstances.

    If there is a justified reason for the group change, and it is desirable that this should happen before the first workshop is conducted.

  • What time of day will the workshops be conducted?

    The workshops will always be conducted within the hours between 06:00AM – 22:00PM

    The participants reside in countries across the globe and under several time zones. When creating the groups this is taken into count. Creating the groups is a complex puzzle. When we move one participant to another group that can have an effect on all groups, and possibly require more alterations.

    NOTE: When conducting the consolidation workshops, the participants will be divided into new groups. The participants live around the globe and have different timezones, because of this some participants may experience that the consolidation workshops are conducted outside the given hours of 06:00AM-22:00PM. 

  • What if I am not able to participate in a specific workshop?

    Please contact your facilitator to let them know when and why you cannot participate.

    We encourage you to participate in all workshops, as many as possible to get the full experience and to have the opportunity to share your perspective and identify and help find solutions to challenges in the world.  

  • How many hours are the workshops?

    The length of the workshops are three hours. 

  • When will we receive the participant kit?

    The participant kit will be sent late March.

    When sending a recorded letter/package it can be a three-to-four-week journey from sending to when you receive it. When sending the package out of Europe the package is checked in customs and that can delay the delivery further. You can contact the info mail info@capitalofchildren.com for a track and trace number.

  • We never received the participant kit.

    When sending a recorded letter/package it can be a three-to-four-week journey from sending to when you receive it. When sending the package out of Europe the package is checked in customs and that can delay the delivery further. You can contact the info mail info@capitalofchildren.com for a track and trace number.

    Unfortunately some packages may never reach their destination. They can be hold back in customs, disappear, be returned or for some other reason to us unknown not reach their destination. 

    If you never receive your package you will get a kit when you get to the physical summit in September. The items in the participant kit are used during the workshop but if you don’t receive it, the facilitators can send you the material that can be accessed digitally and ensure that you can participate as best possible without the items.

  • Group Teams channels (participants)

    The facilitators created a group channel in teams for each participating group (from group A-H). On the platform the facilitators and participants can communicate about the workshops and share ideas, post questions and information in general.

Travel

  • Travel Grant

    You have the possibility to apply for a partial reimbursement of your trip to Billund in September 2023. We wish to make the trip to Billund possible for as many children as possible. Therefore, as the travel grant pool is limited in size, we encourage you to apply for a travel grant only if it is a necessary precondition for your trip to Billund. Applications from developing countries will be prioritized. It is possible to apply for a travel grant for the participating child and for one responsible participating parent/caregiver.

    DEADLINE FOR APPLYING FOR TRAVEL GRANT: 26th April 2023, at 8 am UCT+2.

     

    Requirements for applying for a travel grant 

    To be considered for a travel grant, we expect you to participate in a minimum of 5

    workshops. In the Qualtrics application form, you will be asked which workshops you

    do not expect to participate in and provide a valid explanation of absence. If the

    criterion about participation is not met, we reserve the right to reclaim the amount of

    the travel grant. We wish to make the trip to Billund possible for as many children as possible. Therefore,

    as the travel grant pool is limited in size, we encourage you to apply for a travel grant

    only if it is a necessary precondition for your trip to Billund. Applications from developing

    countries will be given priority.

     

    How and when we transfer the travel grant to you

    If a travel grant application is approved, we will transfer the granted amount to you. We

    will do our utmost to ensure an efficient transfer process, but it may take several days,

    from when the money leaves Denmark and until it is received at an international bank - in many

    cases, up to 20 working days. You can expect to receive the money after approximately

    one month.

    Once you have received the transfer of the promised amount, you are obliged to:

    • Complete another form with the receipt of your airline tickets and a copy of your

             visa application. The deadline for this is 19th June 2023. You will receive this form

             if/when your travel grant application is approved.

    If, for some reason, you are unable to make the trip to Billund, you must repay the travel

    grant you have received, so that it can benefit other children.

  • Travel Grant decision

    We have received numerous Travel Grant applications and the applied amount were for more than twice the size of the pool provided by our indispensable sponsors. All applications have been assessed individually. Applications from developing countries have been given priority and active participation in the workshops have been considered. Unfortunately, we could not grant all applicants.

    Although we were not able to grant all applicants we still hope to see all participants in Billund, Denmark to the physical Summit in September.

  • When can we expect to receive the Travel Grant?

    We are pleased to inform you that all the awarded travel grants have been transferred or are being processed by the bank. 

    However, due to summer break, there might be delays in the transfers. From the time we received the last information from you, it can take a month, maybe longer, before you receive the travel grant in your account. We kindly ask you to have patience on this matter.

    If you have not received the money by July 31st, please let us know and we will look into the matter.

  • Will you provide documents for visa application?
