Each One Teach Five Inspiration

Dear Correspondents,

So many of you have told me about your inspiring plans for spreading your new knowledge and skills through Each One Teach Five. Sapna is going to be holding a training for 150 university students in Assam, and Ruun Abdi is holding workshops in her community in partnership with another social activist.

I would love it if you could share your plans with the group, and share your experience once you've finished your trainings. We can all take inspiration from your success!

And just a quick reminder--there are two things we are asking you to do with Each One Teach Five: one, we would like you to help 5 other women start profiles on PulseWire; and two, we would like you to teach those five (or more!) women about some aspect of the Voices of Our Future training program. That means you can share your knowledge about Web 2.0, citizen journalism or empowerment. You don't have to cover all the topics, but you can if you want to. You are also welcome to include men in your trainings. We just ask that you at least reach out to 5 women--but beyond that, it is up to you!

Please make sure to use the helpful event tracking sheet listed in the classroom, or some similar version. We would love to receive copies of these, or you can just email us the information as well. Keeping track of your trainings helps us track the program's success!

This group is a great place to brainstorm possibilities. And feel free to reach out to Scott and myself for help or assistance. For instance, Ruun Abdi is asking me to call in as a guest speaker for during her training. Be creative and share your ideas with us!

Kindest regards,

Rachael
