James, Bahati - work with UWEZO

First:

  • 2 sets of workshops with young people - youth facilitated - organized by Bahati

  • Based on previous resources - work with them to contextualize them

  • We can support remotely?

Second:

  • Based on outcomes

  • Using the resources - develop an outcome

    • what these resources mean in their context

    • gather feedback

    • “outcomes” from working with the orgs - put on the website - they can follow up, give feedback, share stories…

    • how do we make the website include Chinyarwanda?

Bahati:

  • receiving different toolkits, strategy documents, that we could integrate, but we did not participate in the development process so they don’t work

  • echo what James said - contextualize - the info that is available already - take into account young people with learning differences

  • UWEZO - also worked with all young people from marginalized communities

  • Rwanda - refugee families here for many years - find it difficult to participate…

  • Emerging technologies

  • Note “learning differences”

  • Findings from the research - something we can include -these have not been shared in the country,

  • As UWEZO to know what is there currently

  • Accessibility of social media, digital media platforms - people with special needs, those who never went to school

    • audio, video with subtitles - multi-modal content
