PROJECT NEHEMIA - V

PERIOD: January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013
TARGET: Rs  1,75,000 (One Lakh Seventy Five Thousand only)
THRUST AREAS: While the needs of our Mission Schools are many and varied, allocation of Project funds has always been based purely on prioritization of such needs. The primary objective in the initial stages was to provide financial support towards improvement of basic infrastructure. However, over the years a growing need was felt for re-examining this aspect of the Project and to focus more attention towards human capacity building. Accordingly, there has been a gradual shift towards initiatives for capacity enhancement, while not completely abandoning support for infrastructural improvement.
The Study Team, which was formed within the BYF Committee for the purpose of making a detailed study of the various implementation policies/options, recommended three major thrust areas during this period. These are:-
  1. Teachers’ Empowerment/Capacity Enhancement;
  2. Infrastructure Building; and
  3. Student Motivation.

 

PHASE BENEFICIARIES NATURE OF ASSISTANCE / SUPPORT STATUS REMARK
PHASE – I Teachers’ Empowerment/
Capacity Enhancement		 Teachers of EBC Mission Schools Taking part in the Evan-Teachers’ Summer Condensed Course (ETSCC), a training programme organised by the EBC Headquarters from June 17-29, 2013 at Grace Bible College, New Lamka.

Team Project Nehemiah comprised of four Resource Persons and an efficient Support Group. The Resource Persons were:-
  1. Upa T. Kaithang
  2. Upa L. Ngulminthang
  3. Mrs. Grace Siamlianvung
  4. Ms. Kimremmawi Tonsing.
 Armed with the belief that providing maximum capacity enhancement opportunities to the teachers is the need of the hour to ensure access to quality education for the children of Zoudawn, Team Project Nehemiah took part in this important Seminar. Our Resource Persons conducted four sessions for two days (June 28 and 29) on topics ranging from Roles & Responsibilities of Mission Schools and Teachers as Agents of Change, Effective Teaching in the Context of Zoudawn, Correcting Common Errors in English, Basic Communication in Hindi as well as on Personality Development. A reference booklet was published on the occasion. Soft copy of the same can be accessed here.
PHASE – II Students’ Motivation Schools of Thanlon and Singngat Divisions, Manipur Mission Motivational Tour, 2013. A team of 14 members of the BYF, led by Pastor V. Nenglian, undertook the Tour from July 26 to August 1, 2013, visiting a total of 17 schools.

The Team interacted with students, teachers and various stakeholders, including the Local School Committees, parents and Church leaders in each village. Motivational Sessions, learning exercises, fun activities, career-oriented talks for higher classes as well as special intercessory prayers for the students and teachers were conducted in each school. Wherever the Team stopped for the night, worship programmes were held with the local Church. The Project distributed gift packets including pencils, pens, erasers, sharpener and ruler for each student. Footballs, volleyballs and customised Project Nehemiah wall-clocks were gifted to the schools and Churches. Detailed Tour Report can be accessed here.
