Report on Gender
Introduction
On April 1, 2009, at 9:00 AM, Shahina came to class. She was cohort-1st follow. Now she is working in Bangalore. She talked about Gender. But many of the people thinking that gender is a male and female but this is totally wrong perception. Then she told that, ‘Gender refers to the array of socially constructed roles and relationship, personality traits, attitudes relative powers and influence that society ascribes to the two sexes on a differential basis. This gender discrimination is not only in India but this is present all over the world, only it varies from country to country culture to culture and race to race.’
Module Description
We are not born with gender but we learnt from the society, gender is a different meaning in different societies, cultures, races and countries. When a woman gives birth to a female child, her husband and society treat her as a cursed women. To have male or female child both wife and husband are equally responsible. But the societies blame women only.
In the afternoon she gave case study. We were studied that, If the women gives birth to female child than her husband and family members force to kill that female child due to pressure and threats to the women from her husband and family members. She kills her female child.
Than Chinn babu also told that, ‘Gender is not about women and men, but it is an all about relationship between men and women. What man can do and achieve even women is capable to achieve anything in the world but the society oppressed her not to go out from their homes.’
Than next fellows have divided into two groups, first group discussed one case study on ‘Bakul’s life’ then they presented. And Second group presented on ‘women discrimination in Afghanistan.’ After this presentation we performed drama in which boys performed women’s role and girls performed men’s role. It is very nice. I enjoyed lot. Really this module has changed my opinion regarding sex and gender. Gender is a not about women, is not about men and it is not about relate.

Entrepreneurial Motivation Training:
Before attending this Module Naveen and Chinnababu has created an eagerness and curiosity in me. The session started with a story of king. With a unique dream,
later all fellows were shifted in to library and we got involved in Treasure hunting Game it was quite interesting and mind blowing to us, then all fellows presented their hunting game, my team got first prize.
In second session we all were involved in the test of creative imagination, by seeing picture for 30secands and based on this we build our own story. Later we wrote on two page wise up of who am I? Than in the Second day was so interesting and we enjoyed a lot by playing ring game. But later we all realized about our actual behavior and hidden potential by critical and constracite feed back by Rita Sengupta.
She used a technique of data analysis to give and understand the person who is she/he? What is she/he? Showing the data she explained every ones later on behavior their actual characteristics. Later on she gave us a motivational profile Questionnaire. She explained by giving an example and stories.
Next day she analysed our story writing by introducing a different language called AI,G+,G-,Fe+,Fe-,N,H,Ach,Bp and Bw.This is one core thing of this three day’s module. If we are able to find out the AI in our story and who am I and in the drama it’s nothing but I am on the right track. After post lunch we all were involved in the tower building game this is too challenging and mind blowing to me. This game made me to realize my mistakes and made us to change and accept others thought and ideas, through this I learnt that
v I should not set a unrealistic goal.
v I should listen carefully to other views
v I should be using my own internal sources
v I should not be dependent on others view it’s a sign of my handicapped

Through ring game I came to know about myself that I should do a people oriented or something for the sake of other. I should do my own interest and passion. These are all games and activities were analyzed by the following strategy or attributes, such as power motivation, Afflictive motivation, achievement motivation, and extention motivation. She made clear about our goal and activities. She gave an opportunity to do one skit, based on the AI. My team has done it very effectively where as other teams has not much effective. We are very clear about the concept whatever she taught us in the class.
Lastly she come up with a business game, this game has a number of terms and conditions with a time limit. This is totally based on our learning of the two day activities. She summarized it in simple and common language by comparing to AI standards.
Thus all fellows were very happy with this module and instruction I am sure that 8o % of the fellow were able to set the goal and action plan. This module will help us in each and every moment to take firm decision and success take firm help.
Rita sengatpna told that what I am today is because of yesterday, what I will be tomorrow is because of today, this really opened my valuable and unsellable internal resources she showed me a right path at the right time to take right direction.

Report on Microfinance

Introduction:

Yesterdays we learnt Microfinance. That day the class started as usual at 9.30 o’clock in the morning. Vijay Kulkrani came over class. He thought about ‘Microfinance’. Vijay Kulkrni teaching line is very good. In the morning we were presented PPT about microfinance. I got much information in that class. Actually I don’t know what is the Microfinance? When Vijay sir took the class, I learnt many things. Now I am come to tell about Microfinance.
Key Points of the Module:

What is Microfinance? “Microfinance offers poor people access to basic financial services such as loans, savings, money transfer services and micro insurance”. It means- Microfinance is a solution to the poorest people’s incapacity to find suitable employment and take needed credit. People living in poverty, like everyone else, need a different range of financial services to run their businesses, build, property, smooth expenditure, and manage risks.

Why microfinance need? Because there is an urgent need for microfinance instates to improve their capacity to reach the poorest families. However in bank ward regions, poor people, in calculation to microfinance, need a complete range of agricultural, business development services etc. And there is need and there is business opportunity. Three things we needed to microfinance.
· Investment
· Life cycle needs
· Emergency leads

Why poor need money?
· Their income is not enough to mange crises
· Lack admission to safe formal deposit services
· To help to overcome of thanks
· To uplift the social and economic status
· To help fulfill the basic needs
· To start a small business to produce income
· To make stronger the standard of living

Types of Banks-
· Cooperative bank
· Public sector bank
· Private sector bank
· Grameen bank
· Foreign bank
· No banking finance companies


Reach- One bank branch within 5 Kms
One bank branch for 5500 population

Who are the clients of microfinance? Client are often described according to their poverty level-
· Vulnerable non poor
· Upper poor
· Poor
· Very poor
This can we obscure the fact that micro clients.

Do very poor people repay their loans? Yes, microfinance clients are excellent credit risks. The repayment rate is between 95 and 98 percent. In fact it is higher than the repayment rate of student loans and credit card debts in the joint stats. They value the opportunity to improve their lives.

Conclusion (what I Learnt):
Totally Microfinance means the rider of financial services like credit, savings, insurance, etc. It involves small amounts of money and small loans. According to word bank ‘one person who spends per day less than 1% he or she considers as being below poverty line.
I should point out this is not thanks to microfinance but rather for profit big banks. Sometimes called “banking for the poor”. Microfinance is a wonderfully simple come near that has been confirmed to make powerful very poor people around the world to pull themselves out of poverty, very poor people, other financial services, and microfinance organization.




Report on LFA

Introduction
In three days we learnt about LFA, which means ‘Logical Framework Analysis’. The first day of class started as usual at 9:00 o’clock. In the morning Batta came to over class. First we started the prayer song, then after Prekash took the class about LFA. He taught us many things. First now I will tell about LFA.
Key points of the Module
What is Logical Framework Analysis? “Log frame is a tool for planning and managing development, and it describes/summarizes a project. It looks like a table and aims to present information about the key components of a project in a clear, concise, logical and systematic way”. (Source- prakash)
Where’s the logic? “There is a logical connection between the cells of the matri. That logic that connects the cells in the left-most column is referred to as vertical logic. The logic connects the remaining three columns is referred to as level logic. It means “the vertical logic is the hierarchy of objectives of the project.” (Source-prakash)
Problem Analysis: If there is no agreement between parts of the statement of problem, is unlikely there will be agreement on the solution. This stage therefore seeks to get agreement on the detailed aspects of the problem.
LEA is best started early in activity design. It has a common and flexible application. Activity planning and management should always be approached as a team job. This means that passable opportunity should be given to colleges and key stakeholders to give input to the process and product of LFA. This can be supported by -AAAID
Why use LFA? “LFA can be a useful tool in the planning, monitoring and evaluation and management of development projects. It is not only a planning tool and should not be considered an end in itself. Clear and specific thinking about what the project aims to do and importance those aspects upon which success depends”.
Practical lessons learned:
First, the fellows were divided into groups. Next we prepared the problem tree, objective tree and project planning matrix. Then we combined. In each group there were three members. In our group were Gayatri, Chandrasheker and I. We prepared the problem trees with PPT. The problem tree is constructed by selecting a problem from the list and involving the problem to a starter problem using the cause effect basis described below. If the problem is an effect of the starter problem it goes above.

Report on Agriculture
March 11th 2009 at 9.00 AM Srikanth,Pattana Shatti,Desai, and Sangeeta Patil they are came to over class. They are working in AME Foundation. They taught about Agriculture. What I learnt in that class. First now I am come to tell about AME Foundation.
AME Foundation is a development oriented; it is born out of the concern for people in difficult farming circumstances in the midst of widespread environmental degradation. AME Foundation is committed to livelihood improvements of resource poor farmers through eco friendly farming systems.
AME foundation works with small and marginal farmers in the Deccan plateau region by generating farming alternatives, enriching the knowledge base, training, linking development agencies and sharing experience.
Agriculture development in India, now India’s position in the world, and India exports in 2006-07, developments in farming than technology developments and also Rural poverty remains a persisting problem it is means- “its proportion is declining, but not the magnitude and its remains a national concern. Today the growth rate in agriculture is gradually slackening but for GDP to grow at 8% and more.4% both for economic development and poverty alleviation”.
Then market farming, commercial farming, and the farming situation then challenges in rural livelihood-
1) Food and nutrient security
2) Self reliance in farming income generation through allied activities
3) Marketing of surplus in local market
4) Capacity building and knowledge empowerment
This much I learnt in that class. And last Sangeeta took the class. She told about LEISA. What I got in her class. “LEISA is about Low Extremely input and sustainable agriculture. It is about the technical and social options open to farmers who seek to improve productivity and income in an ecologically sound way LEISA is a concept an approach and a political message. LEISA is also participatory. It is about the empowerment of male and female farmers and the communities who seek to build their future on the bases of their own knowledge, skills, values, culture and institutions.
Afternoon Pattana shatti sir took the class and explained about “reaching the unreached farm families” in this topic I came to know about, the rural scenario, Illiteracy poor health and sanitation, migration of rural community to urban areas. After this He explained about better management of natural resources, understanding and handling market operation. This many in three days I learnt.

Thank You.

Report of Effective communication
2 days Naveen jha sir started the session at 9.00 AM. He took the Effective Communication what I learnt in 2 days in that class. Know I came to about meaning “Effective Communication”.
Definition of Communication: communication in the process of exchanging information by the us. Effective communication manse-‘It matters not so much what you say as it does hoe you say it’.
Why need effective communication for us? Because improved stakeholder response, quicker problem solving, stronger decision making and stronger business relations ship. This much we want needed effective communication.
Two types of communication is there 1) verbal communication 2) Non-verbal communication.
And these are four basic components to effective listening –
Listening means “Absorption of meaning of the word and sentences by the brain.
1) Listening with empathy
2) Listening with openness
3) Listening with awareness
4) Listening actively.
Listening with empathy means- “To listen empathy try to identify what needs the other person is trying to meet. Some time we do listen because, we do not want hear what is being said. And we fear being wrong”.
Listening with openness means- “To listen with openness, imagine you are a detective”.
Listening with Awareness means-“simply not listening we want conscious means mind full listening”.
Actively listening, there are three elements of active.
1) More types of listing
2) Basics steps of listing
3) Types of listing

1) More types of listing-
a) Informative listing
b) Relationship listing
c) Appreciative listing
d) Critical listing
e) Discriminative listing
2) Basics steps of listing-
a) Hearing
b) Understanding means-‘Thus we can say that listing leads to the understanding of the facts.
c) Evaluating-‘This is the final step of listing.
After listener is sure about his understanding, the listener now thinks whether it makes any sense or not after that.ch
3) Types of listing
a) Discriminative listening
b) Marginal listing
It means many a times it happens that the speak has much more information to provide than the listener want.
c) Projective listening
It means –‘The listener himself may have some idea about the topic the speaker is dealing with.
d) Active listing
Means –‘A person who incorporates listening with concentration is said to be actively listening.
In active listening the listener is paying full attention to the speech. This type of listening is called active listening.

Barriers in listening:
1) Lake of interest
2) Ego
3) Mismatch of perception
4) Language difference
5) Disability of hearing

Barriers mean “anything serving to maintain separation by abstracting vision or access.

What is the appreciative inquiry?
When it comes to solving your company’s biggest problems, focusing on what’s already working may be the best way to fix what’s wrong. How It Works AI involves a four-step process typically led by an outside consultant. The steps are usually done either in a...
It means “an approach to organization change that focuses and builds on the strengths and potential of an organization”.

The five phases of appreciative inquiry-
1) Define
2) Discover
3) Dream
4) Design
5) Delve
Assumptions of appreciative inquiry-
In every society organization or group something works. What we focus on becomes our reality. Reality is created in the moment, and there are multiple realities. Then people have more confidence and comfort to journey to the future when they can carry forward parts forwarded, parts of the past. If we carry parts of the past forward, they should be what is best about the past. It is important to value differences.

4 foundation questions-

1) The best experience
It means-‘tell me about the best times that I have had with over school or organization.
2) What made it exciting?
3) Values
Means ‘without being humble, what do mine value most as a human being, a friend, teacher and so on?
When we are feeling best about over’s work, what do we value about it?
What about over school or organization do you value?

Then after sir asked some questions. He wants every one of us to focus on answer. This much I learnt in class.


Thank you.

I feel strongly if this issue is not addressed immediately our nation will have great problem ahead.

Leadership Activity at Indira Glass House
It was Feb 1st, 2009, Sunday morning when the fellow group of Ms.Savita, Mr.Lakshmish, Ms.Latha and Ms.Usha visited Indira Glass House located in the heart of the Hubbali Muncipal city, hoping even there we can find some reason where we can intervene as leaders.
We could see many elderly men, women, children and senior citizens of Hubbali starting their day with walking at Indira Glass House under beautiful sunrise, few doing yoga practice and the young kids practicing Skating.
But all those were not our focus, rather
we could see very unhygienic condition like used plastics lying all around, paper plates, tumblers etc. dustbins lying around the area which seemed that people coming there never wanted to use it. The place never looked like someone was bothered about its maintenance. Though there was a huge board placed at several places of the Park, in which number of rules focusing on the cleanliness of the place, vehicles not allowed inside the premises all just look like rules that were not to be followed.

When interacted with the people around that area, they expressed their sense of withdrawn from what is happening. On probing they expressed saying “what is available in the park now, is provided after a lot of struggle, writing appeals to the concerned people.” On asking the opinion from those gathered around about bringing necessary steps to keep the place according to the rules and regulations of the place, they all together expressed the interest to fight together for the cause. They came to an opinion saying “a letter could be signed by all those who come there and the same could be forwarded to the Director of the Horticulture”. They expressed the deep sense of support for the team by saying they would join us if their support could be handy. On the same time it was decided, if there is no step taken the issue should be taken to the media.
As per the plans, the fellows visited the place on Feb 8th, 2009 and collected signature from 35 people and the same will be forwarded to the Director of Horticulture, Hubbali.
The important aspect to notice was, those who interacted with us were aware about Deshpande Foundation, though not its thorough activities a good sense of positive words were shared by them.
