Introduction
After 2 training sessions from India and Spain with all of new knowdlege and experience, Vietnameses participants have created the local project in a day for 57 teenagers / youth about Non formal education through sport and physical activities.
The local activity was organized on Sat, 23rd Feb in Ba Vi National park with 57 youth leader ( 12-16 years old) who were actived volunteers in their school and community. The project was led by both Vietnamese local volunteers and Western volunteers.
1. Preparation – How the ideas come up?
We had a group of 6 international volunteer and 3 youth worker who took part in the TC in India and Spain. They had discussed for 2 days to design a schedule and games for children.
When we did research about the training, we realized that very few of Vietnam teenager have awareness about Non- formal Education. They don’t know what is it. So we decided that the first part of the activity will be inform them what is NFE.
Here is our 3 main topics for the training:
- What is NFE and what you have learnt through NFE around you?
We tell them what is Formal Education and prepared pictures of 20 activity ( both of formal and non- formal education). Then divided them into 3 groups to play game. This game they can separate what is Formal Edu and Non- Formal Edu.
We asked them: following this game, can you tell me: What is NFE? And collected all of their ideas in a board.
We concluded by give them the definition of NFE
Asked them what NFE have you learnt so far?
- NFE by sport activity:
WE have designed games
- How to include your friend in NFE by sport.
They discussed in group about their plan to get their friend involve in NFE through sport
We print our flyer and send them to the all participants.
