THE DAILY TALK

TALKSHOW SCRIPT

(Intro)
Host: Hello Philippines and hello world! Welcome to “The Daily Talk”! Host: I
came upon this inspiring institution called the World Leisure Organization. Some
of you might have heard of it, but for the benefit of the doubt, let’s take a look at
this clip. (WLO CLIP)

Host: With the help of our special guests, we will be discussing about the
World Leisure Organization, its role and position statements. Let’s have a round
of applause to the representatives of the World Leisure Organization, Ms. _____
and Ms. ______. (Crowd applause and cheer)

Host: Welcome to “The Daily Talk”, Ms. ______ and Ms._____. Thank you for
being with us today. It is a pleasure to meet you both. Guest: The pleasure is ours
Ms. ___________.
Guest: Thank you for having us here.
Host: Now tell me, what exactly is WLO?
Guest1: WLO, founded in 1952, is a world-wide, non-government association
of persons and organizations dedicated to discovering and fostering those
conditions best permitting leisure to serve as a force for human growth,
development and well-being and advocates leisure as a means for improving the
quality of life. Host: In what way do you improve the quality of life?

Guest2: Access to meaningful leisure experiences is no less than the need

for shelter, education, employment and fundamental health care. Yet, improving
the quality of life does not occur by chance. Rather it happens through the joint
efforts of our policy makers, our leisure professionals, and our public and private
sector program providers. Host: The increase in leisure time has become a
universal phenomenon, which holds implications on life of any civilization
regardless of its social and cultural structure. What does WLO do about these
implications? Guest1: Members discuss any issues, views, policies, projects and
other initiatives that have implications on leisure. Host: What are the duties of the
WLO?

Guest2: First, we foster inquiry: Research and scholarship to discover the

personal and social potentialities of leisure experiences. Second, we share what
we know: Formal and informal dissemination of knowledge and information.
Lastly, we engage in informed advocacy: By advocating for conditions optimizing
leisure experiences: legislation, infrastructure, leadership, and programming.
Host: How do you accomplish such action points?

Guest1: To fulfill these duties, we provide forums, through Face to Face,

such as World Congresses, Regional Conferences and workshops or through
Print and Electronic Media, like World Leisure Journal, Electronic Newsletter,
monographs and web site. We also offer programs, such as Research and
Scholarship, Post Graduate Education, Commissions and Working Groups,
Consulting and Training and International Student Exposure. We also engage in
Informed Advocacy like Charters, International Declarations and Position Papers.
We also work with others, such as United Nations and its Agencies, International,
Regional and National Non-governmental Organizations and the Private Sector.
Host: Do you have any position statements?

Guest2: Yes, and we actually have five. First, all people have the right to
leisure activities, in accordance to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that
the government must recognize. Second, governments must make sure that there
are recreational opportunities available to its people. Third, leisure activities must
be used for self-fulfillment, development of personal and social relationships,
development of cultural identity, promotion of international understanding and the
enhancement of the quality of life. Fourth, citizens must have access to all
information on leisure and its opportunities. Last but not the least, the nature and
importance of leisure must be taught by educational institutions to be integrated
to one’s personal lifestyle.
