ETHIOPIAN NGO LEADERS ATTEND COURSE ON FACILITATION AND SELF HELP
Participants from Ethiopian NGOs attended a two week programme at MANAVODAYA to learn about the methods of facilitating Self Help among the poor. We are pleased to note a very encouraging response from all the participants.
Some Reflections by the Participants
Our world is devastated by donor supports that finally leads to no contribution to the society life changes. To break free from support approach to self help approach could not be an easy task. The very terrific thing is you have done it (successful).

I am happy to capture and implement the SHG model in my country , since I find it as the only means of penetrating the vicious circle of poverty, empowering the poorest of the poor socially, politically, culturally, and economically.

I learnt how to change yourself first and then the attitude of other people. In general, I got more than what I expected from the work visit. I am going also to adopt the idea to my country.
