Each one teach one!

Each one teach one!

It’s an anecdote defining the progress in the strength of HARIT PRAYAS staff at Sagar…

HARI & RAJA the cluster coordinators of HARIT PRAYAS project at the MVSS-Sagar has joined the team on 10^th January 2011, both are graduates and from one of the project village named Jamghat! When they joined they have never seen any laptop or computer and touching it was a dream for them!  With the initial interaction and induction with them have shown interest among them to learn the things…

From the Feb 1^st 2011, the process of baseline survey has started and all the staff get engaged in it and did the baseline survey in the spiluated time period and after the baseline survey when it came to do the data entry initially all the staff were bit afraid that now they have to work on the  computers and for them it was bit difficult, but its HARI & RAJA who along with the project Coordinator took the initiative to do the entry, although initial few days they were not able to understand what to do? But slowly-slowly with guidance from the project coordinator they have learnt the entry in the SPSS as well as on Excel and with some extra days they were able to complete the entry of villages for which they have done the baseline survey, seeing both Raja and Hari, other two cluster coordinators also get motivated and able to finish few villages data entry!

After all the data entry , during the joint meeting of HARIT PRAYAS partners to set the results and analyse the baseline findings to have clear cut targets, rest of the two teams have completed their analysis part, but it’s the MVSS-Sagar team, who has not able to do the analysis part, because their coordinator has resigned in between…

………without analysis of baseline survey its not possible to set the targets,  and again its Raja and Hari, who took the initiative for their team and  with the support from caritas India project officer , they did the analysis of the collected data and presented in front of all the team members during the Joint review meeting…its important to note that these two cluster coordinators have never known of excel/SPSS but have done the good work on that!.....now they are mobilizing the community for other aspects of the projects….

…in words of Raja…for me HARIT PRAYAS is a school, where iam student as well as a teacher…I am doing both learning and teaching!
