[Vnbiz] Invite to participate in YLDPM

[Pham Thanh Nhon]

Dear CACC,



On behalf of Oversea Vietnamese Students (OVS) and Organizer of YLDPM, I
would like to introduce about the progam "Youth-Led Development Project
Management" that will train 50 youth participants on knowledge, skill and
experience of community project management. The program is for pupils and
students are studying in Ho Chi Minh City at 11 August from 08:00AM to 12:00
PM with tea break.


Accompanying the flow of international volunteerism, the strengthening
spirit of volunteerism among Vietnamese students has lead to an increasingly
vibrant volunteer sector, both in terms of the quality and scope of
volunteer organisations in the community. This trend finds no exception in
the *tertiary scene*, with *schooling youths* becoming ever more involved in
advancing community causes. However, much of this student activity has been
occurring either* in isolation *or on a *one-off basis*, with individual
groups focusing on their own development and looking no further ahead than
the project at hand. It is to addressing this issue, that the *Sharing
session on Youth-led development project management* has been proposed.

* *

In addition to serving as a *networking platform* for student volunteers
from the various tertiary institutions and informal groups, the conference
also aims to function as a *launch pad* for *fledgling student *initiatives,
both by giving them the skills needed to achieve sustainability, and by
offering them a platform to announce their emergence onto the volunteer
scene. It is with this spirit, that we adopt the theme *"Student Initiatives
– Be the change"*, for the inaugural year of the sharing session.

* *

*Objectives & Outcome*

*Objectives of the conference are:*

✔   To *develop* the tertiary level *community action scene.*

✔   To provide a platform for student volunteers to *network*.

✔   To bring out the *leadership* in each of the students.

✔   To help one-off student initiatives* achieve sustainability*.

✔   To facilitate the *exchange of ideas* and *best practices* among student
volunteer groups.

✔   To *develop* a *mutually supportive environment* among student volunteer
groups.

* *

*Tangible outcomes of the sharing session:*

✔   Share our material resources to 1000 students and give training to
50*best student volunteers
* from local *High schools*.

✔   Involve 3 representatives of professional organisations and 10 leaders
of informal volunteer groups.

✔   Develop *mutual awareness* between the students and formal community
development organisation.

The detail of program is enclosed in attached file including Program and
Application Form. Look forward to hearing your application.
