Youth and way ahead: Linking community to quality and accessible education.

           Youth program held at Senior Secondary School Reodar, Sirohi on 24^th Sept. was first outreach of its kind. The program was organized with an effort to extend the intervention of the district institute to community. The important focus of the program was relationship building and based line understanding for future intervention. The team was welcome warmly and heartily. About two dozens of student took the trouble to stay back after the class in the school for the program under the initiation of one teachers, which is a good number for starting something a new.

           The question that struck my mind was what is the favorable condition for children to welcome intervention from outside? Just a teenage curiosity or has a logical reason behind it?   Our approached was purely informal and activity based of which they like the most. Is the school too rigid in formalities or over emphasis to text book and rote learning? In trying to inculcate community intervention for improving quality and accessibility of education, starting from the youth in the schools needs more logical and stronger justification. With all this question in my mind the exploration begins and will continue to reach a point where the result worth the effort.

           The major learning’s about the needs of the youth, his/her family and the society they belong to was explore. They have easily find terms to express the material needs for themselves, their family and society. The needs are mostly sustaining livelihood, supporting their studies and finding job. The youths have rather find it difficult or missed the psychological and emotional needs for them.

           

               The initiation taken so far has lead us to fixed another appointment totally under the initiation and convenience of the youth schedule. It is becoming a community in nature and youth in specific as the next program will be held in weekend (Sunday) i.e. 21th October. All the youths who attended are invited and also motivate them to invites their friends to joined them.
