Hi Tomek,
yes, this looks good for me.
What do we need to do about the training programme?
I am sending a revised version of our organization profile. See if you
think this makes more sens.
Bats in Action (Ceará, Brazil), PIC nr: 925989161 implements programmes
for education and rehabilitation of youth with visual impairment. The
organization is located in a rural setting in a region with poor
economic development, services and infrastructure.
We try to use alternative learning methods teaching skills and methods
for an independent life such as Braille, the use of information
technology, orientation and mobility and daily living skills. involveing
beneficiaries in peer learning processes which has proven a successful
strategy.
Will you send another version of the proposal?
Thanks
Anja

Hi guys!
If we are to submit the proposa on Monday we have to agree which organizations have the expertise to be the Most Responsible Persons for each trainings. I thought it over again and thought it would be interesting if every training was organized by one European and one outside-european organization. In that way the intercultural collaboration would be maximized. What you think about that?
So far I only received suggestions from Jessi, Tijana, Anja and Kasia. Basing on that I have drafted how it could look like:
*1. Effective Communication Techniques in an International Context for grassroot non-profits -
MRP 1: Kasia, Foundation Institute for Socio-Economic Balance, Poland
MRP 2: Anja, Bats in Action Brasil
*- internal communications: as a tool for increasing core efficiency of organization
- external communications: developing good stakeholder relations through the exchange of information and networking
- Does and Don’ts of office communications through latest inclusive and online tools (available in low-internet areas)
*2. Publicity and Effective fundraising for small grass root NGOs -
MRP 1: Tomek&Tijana, SolidarityFilmDoc, Poland
MRP 2: Tiffany, David, Jyothirgamaya, India*
- Creating a publicity strategy: Who does the organisation want to reach and what it wants them to know? (publicity documents, branding, events, media, joining networks)
- Developing a realistic Fundraising plan, fundraising strategies (grants/income generation/user charges/individual donations/corporate giving)
*3. Volunteering -**
MRP 1: **Views International, Belgium
***MRP 2: Yoshimi, Always Reading Caravan, Thailand**
- how to use the potential of offline and online volunteering to address gaps of the NGO in a sustainable way
- Using EVS as a tool for engaging international volunteers and guidelines for proper hosting and coordination of EVS activities
- Writing EVS applications and understanding all procedural measures in the application process
- opportunities and threats of involving local and international volunteers in activities of the NGO
*4. Peer Support -
MRP 1: Jessica, German Federation of the B**lind, Germany
MRP 2: Samuel Odwar, Thumbs Up, Uganda
*Through experiential learning Youth workers learn how to work with their peers:
- examining assumptions about who they are, and explore ways to create mutual relationships in which power is negotiated, co-learning is possible, and support goes beyond traditional notions of “service.”
- reviewing the intangible: strategy and structure, ownership& commitment of particular activities of the organization
- use individual action plans, active listening, recovery focussed language and approaches, problem solving, boundaries, ethical issues, challenging situations and working in groups. 5. Curriculum development for stationery and online transversal skills trainings for youth workers (including formal recognition)
*5. how to prepare educative training content teaching IT, civic and entrepreneurship skills
MRP 1: Tijana, Tomek , SolidarityFilmDoc Poland
MRP 2: Tiffany, David, Jyothirgamaya India*
- Using European best practices of Youth organizations Public Private Partnerships + recognition of qualifications (Youth pass) to teach how to involve public institutions: educational, governments but also companies in transversal skill acquisition programmes
*6.Disability related / Equal opportunities etc –* *(I added this one as most of the partners work with youth with disabilities, mostly visually impaired)
MRP 1: Yoshimi, Always Reading Caravan Thailand
MRP 2: Views International, Belgium
*
Let me know if you feel comfortable with it! If you do please adjust the programme of the trainings especially the Disability related/Equal Opportunities
best regards
Tomek
