Develop a Life Skills Learning Module
We are looking for a team of volunteers who want to develop a learning module on financial- and resource management to complement a manual for our Life Skills training programme targeting youth in secondary schools in four African countries: Tanzania, Togo, Congo and Chad. By implementing regular Life Skills trainings in secondary schools, youth are supported to grow into confident adults leading healthy lifes. The programme aims specifically to educate and sensitise youths to increase awareness on the risks of alcohol- and drug consumption and to then influence their behaviour.
The weekly training sessions are led by Life Skills coaches facilitating the acquisition of skills touching upon the thematic fields related to alcohol-and drug harm such as addiction, HIV, discrimination, violence and gender issues. As a good organisation of financial issues and household budget is a prerequisite to cope with daily life challenges, we would like to enhance our Life Skills training by educating youth on how to manage financial resources (household budgeting, insurances, taxes etc.). Explicitely in the context of the low-income setting of developing countries it is important that people are aware of how to best manage their resources with acquiring the best possible life quality, taking into account social- and health protection.
Develop a manual with six lessons of one hour for our Life Skills Programme. The lessons should cover the following topics: Developing budgeting skills, analyzing one’s daily use of money and its effects on well-being, family household budgeting in low income setting, how to start saving, understanding the importance of health and other insurances.
Meetings and discussions with IBC staff from Switzerland and with Life Skills-Coaches who work in the field. Manuals from our Life Skills Handbook as an example.
