The DF projects are run by 16-25 year old members of Woodcraft. They were originally started by DFs and are integral part of the movement, but aim to reach out to all age groups and communities. They work using peer education and cover issues that DFs and other young people in The Woodcraft Folk think are important and want to learn more about.
There are currently three DF projects:
MESTUP (Mediation Education Support Team Umbrella Project)
PARTY (Politically Active and Radically/Revolutionary Thinking Youth)
Rainbow
The District Fellows Movement is the 16-20 year old members of the co-operative educational youth charity, the woodcraft folk, whose ideology is based on the principles of equality, peace, social justice and co-operation, with an emphasis on the empowerment of young people.
DF meetings usually consist of a group of like minded individuals meeting up at a regular time and place (someone's house, or a pub for instance, or even a community hall if the group is large enough) and taking part in usual woodcraft activities. These activities range from co-operative games, orgainising events, workshops and discussions, and general socialising!
The DF movement also meets up on a national basis frequently, to hold both social, educational events and business events allowing everyone to be involved in the running of DF's...
