I found this very interesting because i thought it was an innovative way to expand and broaden the work that they do]]> 2021-09-30 12:11:40 UTC https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1781108803 https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1781124067 I learned about the education programs for getting a degree in teaching visually impaired students. I think this is so cool and needed a lot because not all teachers in schools will know how to tailor their teaching and support children with disabilities.]]> 2021-09-30 12:18:08 UTC https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1781124067 https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1792326625 It was a great opportunity to learn about Voice of World especially since this is my first time in this GC. It gave me a lot of perspective on what Voice of World does to help individual and they current challenges they face. Something that was prominent and stood out for me was their approach to finding the children and how they went out and forged these connection and network to know when a child needed help of the organisation. Something I would like to know more about is the way in which they teach these children to become more independent and wether they help them in terms of career opportunities as they get older. ]]> 2021-10-05 08:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1792326625 veera33916 https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1792342632 I learned about the amount of commitment and effort the voice of world is putting in to make the best possible quality education and life for children who have faced major challenges or setbacks in their life. The school is giving them a fresh start and improving their lives dramatically and changing the way society sees the children. ]]> 2021-10-05 08:59:16 UTC https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1792342632 https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1792504429 I think it was a great idea to have the call with Mr Guha since it's my first time in the GC and it was great to hear more about VOW directly from one of their most active leaders. I think it helped me solidify what exactly VOW aims to do and their various approaches. I think it was really thoughtful of them to introduce the whole concept about giving their children the opportunity to receive degrees as it allows them to be able to get a proper job and be more included in the different communities Calcutta has to offer]]> 2021-10-05 10:19:51 UTC https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1792504429 https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1792629880 As a new member of the GC, I got to know more about the service and it was great having a call with Mr Guha. Even if we don’t get to go to Kolkata which would probably be because of Covid, I got the chance to at least learn about the children and how it works in Kolkata. The call helped me to appreciate the GC more.]]> 2021-10-05 11:24:58 UTC https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1792629880 https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1795670114 I think that having a call with Mr Guha gave me a great insight into what this GC is about. It was very helpful since this is my first year in this GC. A lot of my questions (specifically the ones about how they managed during covid) was really helpful. I was surprised by the fact that he was able to expand Voice Of World on such a large scale that they can now provide further education to students. I am looking forward to calling with him more, it is clear that he had a lot of aspirations for VOW. ]]> 2021-10-06 07:32:16 UTC https://padlet.com/iyer328851/q3eewdks3w5d6t2s/wish/1795670114
