MY PURPOSE
Why do you want to take part in the program Warriors Without Weapons 2009?
The reason why I really so badly would like to participate in the Programme Warriors without weapons 2009 is because, for a long time, I have been struggling with the concept of change through sustainable development. Working with disadvantaged youths in the slum and changing their mind set to embrace projects that are geared towards changing their life styles and the community at large.
MY COMMITMENT
What you intend to do once you are back home after the Warriors Without Weapons?
Mine is to have a first hand experience, once you know something, you will do it to the best of your ability. This after getting the expertise and experience I am sure the community will believe in me and work with me in the rehabilitation of this play ground to what will be accommodative to every youth. There after we will start our own “warriors without weapons” training other youths to work in their communities. I also wish to bring back home the knowledge so that others can believe that all is possible once you decide, dedicate and determined to undertake any task.
MY ACTION
How, in your opinion, your experience during the program here will support you to take action in your location? As I have always indicated earlier in my mails, many people are adamant to change some are ignorant and others just will not act until they see (doubting Thomas’s) results. To achieve this, we have various locations for the youths for playground in my community which have been neglected for many years by the local authority. I have started negotiations with them, for us to partner with them and rehabilitate one in my area. If this succeeds, we will do it to all other playgrounds in the entire community and its environs. I have also seen how the warriors work and engage in their activities, I wish to be part of that team.
