To make them adopt non-violence
The learning process.
THE CENTRE for Experiencing Socio-Cultural Interaction, which serves as a ground for budding activists to groom into professionals, organised a capacity-building workshop for nine young grassroots activists of Ekta Parishad from Bihar and Jarkhand.
The workshop, says Renji G. Joseph, resourceperson, equips them with necessary skills to develop their capacities adopting non-violence as the only method.
"They are taught the strategies of using the available space in the existing systems of legislature, administration, judiciary and media,'' he adds.
The workshop methodology for these social workers, who are being cut off from the upper level of advocacy workers due to lack of education and exposure, includes group discussions, mock plays, role modelling and other practical inputs.
The activists, including three young women dealing with issues related to women and land, after taking the nine-day programme that ended on Tuesday, are going back with full confidence to their respective areas to mobilise the youth for the advocacy programmes.
