Let the dreaming begin!

Our Dream Centre facilitators recently ran two activity programs over two days for the lucky girls attending our pilot Dream Centre. The activities covered communication skills and motivation skills with the workshop being prepared by Gayatri, one of our facilitators.

The workshops incorporated games such as Chinese whispers and Pictionary, group discussions and presentation, individual writing and presentation, question and answer sessions and brainstorming. From all accounts the girls had a fantastic time as did the facilitators!

These types of programs will be the cornerstone of the Dream Centres as they fill a hole in the current education system in Nepal. They will teach girls the importance of communication as well as how to communicate effectively. They will also teach the girls the benefits of self-motivation leading to improved self-esteem and self-sufficiency. As the girls build on these teachings and work through further programs it will be exciting to see their progress into the women of tomorrow in Nepal!

Thank you to Gayatri and the Dream Centre facilitators for all their hard work.
