Methodology:
Our working methodology is rooted in non-formal education, utilizing a variety of learning approaches that promote active engagement and practical application. This includes self-directed learning, where participants take control of their own learning journey, allowing them to explore topics in a way that aligns with their personal interests and needs. Reflection sessions are incorporated to provide space for both personal and group reflection, helping participants internalize and deepen their understanding of the experiences.
Additionally, peer-to-peer learning fosters collaboration and knowledge exchange, enabling participants to learn from one another through shared insights and experiences. These diverse methods ensure that the learning can be effectively transferred to real-world situations, empowering participants to apply what they have learned in their own communities and contexts.
