Global Youth Resiliency Fund Awardee
We are excited to share that ThinkZone is one of the recipients of International Youth Foundation’s Global Youth Resiliency Fund. The fund will support 28 young leaders from 15 countries who are responding to the COVID19 crisis & rebuilding their communities. Through the fund, ThinkZone would be expanding its home-based learning program which is providing quality learning opportunities to young children at home, especially when regular academic sessions have been disrupted.
Storytelling workshop for children
Storytelling is a very effective way of teaching-learning. Our belief is that through stories, difficult topics become simple. This month, we conducted storytelling workshops for children. We coordinated with ThinkZone Fellows to reach children virtually. Using a word, children created their own stories. It was fascinating to watch children create stories using their own words. The imagination and creativity used by children to develop stories was exceptional.
Thinkzone fellows in action
We have already onboarded more than a thousand youth as ThinkZone fellows. The ThinkZone Fellowship Program trains youth to teach young children of their communities. The fellows use technology and home-based resources to teach and support young children in developing strong foundational knowledge in language and maths.
