Foster programming
The international learning group is formed. Together they have determined goals, milestones, and developed a tailor-made learning programme to share, test and blend the chosen solutions in the local context.
Visiting 3 selected initiatives in India
With passion and determination, Empower Youth for Work (EYW) Bangladesh team decided to visit the 3 selected initiatives in India. 4 youth representatives from Bangladesh have participated in this E-motive trip.
Have a look at the profiles of the 3 visited initiatives.
Challenges
Initially it is planned to include 6 youth representatives, 1 government official and 4 Oxfam staffs in the trip. However, 2 youth representatives and the government official did not succeed in getting their visa on time. This could have hindered the programme from achieving its best outcome. However, the team was determined and devoted, they use their action to prove that even with a small team they can guarantee the quality of learning.
Different from the other E-motive trips, expert for mapping the best practices was not recruited in this learning programme. Oxfam India has played an important role in the mapping process by connecting different youth organizations with the team. Among the recommended youth organizations, the team selected the 3 initiatives that can best provide the solutions to the learning questions.
