๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ… Garden day at CICD! ๐Ÿฅ•โœจ

On Thursday we have the tradition of having Garden day. From planting, watering, weeding, and taking care of our garden, our students and teachers harvest the results of their hard work! ๐ŸŒฟ

Fresh fruits and vegetables, grown right here at CICD โ€” from seed to harvest to the table. ๐Ÿฅฌ๐Ÿ“

Here is a sneak peak of last week's action. ๐Ÿ’š

Learn by doing. Grow by doing. ๐ŸŒ

๐Ÿ“š๐ŸŒ Our partner DAPP Malawi is training teachers for the future - and the teachers need to understand the reality of their students. Here is a story from the teachers training college TTC Chilangoma, where some of our students will be going soon for their 6 months volunteer period:

"As one way of preparing the student teachers trained under DAPP Teachers Training Colleges to live and work in the rural Malawi areas, the student teachers participate in a one Family Week activity whereby they go out and live with families in rural areas to learn how they live their day to day lives.

Between 1 to 5 July 2019, 96 student teachers from Chilangoma TTC carried a Family Week exercise in villages around their colleges. The students were attached to 40 families within four villages of Lemu, Nanjiwa, Gomeza and Kamโ€™mata within Traditional Authorities Kuntaja in Blantyre district.

DAPP has four Teachers Training Colleges namely Chilangoma in Blantyre district, Amalika in Thyolo, Dowa in dowa district and Mzimba in Mzimba district."

Our team recently joined the Tvind Olympics, an annual sports event bringing together around 500 young people from care homes across Denmark.

It was a day full of sports, teamwork, fun, and plenty of new connections! ๐Ÿคโœจ

Our students got involved in the event and experienced first-hand how sport can bring people together and create a strong sense of community. ๐Ÿ’š

๐ŸŒ The Hidden Side of โ€œHelpโ€

What does it really mean to help?

Our latest blog post explores why development should be about more than charity. Real change comes from listening, building peopleโ€™s skills, creating opportunities, and supporting communities to become the driving force behind their own future. ๐ŸŒฑ

From community savings groups to education and social support, the biggest impact can come from helping people build the tools and confidence to create lasting change themselves.

๐Ÿ’ญ Maybe itโ€™s time to rethink what โ€œhelpโ€ really means.

๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ… The Fruits of Their Work! ๐Ÿฅ•โœจ

After weeks of planting, watering, weeding, and taking care of our garden, our students are finally harvesting the results of their hard work! ๐ŸŒฟ

Fresh fruits and vegetables, grown right here at CICD โ€” from seed to harvest. ๐Ÿฅฌ๐Ÿ“

Itโ€™s a simple reminder that when you put in the effort, you get to enjoy what you grow. ๐Ÿ’š

๐Ÿ“š๐ŸŒ Literacy for People, the Planet & Prosperity

On International Literacy Day, weโ€™re reminded that literacy is about much more than reading and writing โ€” it gives people the tools to understand the world, make informed decisions, and build a better future. ๐Ÿ’š

Across the Humana People to People network, projects are supporting teachers, schools, and communities to make education more inclusive and resilient.

Because when people have the opportunity to learn, they have more opportunities to shape their own future. ๐ŸŒฑ

๐Ÿ“šโœจ Exams at CICD Look a Little Different!

At CICD, our students donโ€™t sit down and write a classic exam on paper. Instead, they present what theyโ€™ve learned and interpret it in their own way. ๐ŸŽค๐ŸŒ

They bring together their knowledge, experiences, research, and reflections โ€” showing not only what they know, but how they understand and apply it. ๐Ÿ’ก

Because learning isnโ€™t just about remembering information. Itโ€™s about understanding, questioning, and sharing what youโ€™ve discovered. ๐ŸŒฑ

๐ŸŒฑ Thursday Garden Action at CICD ๐ŸŒฑ

Every Thursday, our students come together for a garden action โ€” getting their hands dirty while learning about organic gardening and sustainability. ๐ŸŒฟ

From planting and composting to caring for the soil and growing food, itโ€™s all about learning by doing.

A little time in the garden, a lot of new skills. ๐Ÿ’š

๐ŸŒ๐ŸŽ“ Felipeโ€™s 10-Month Journey ๐ŸŽ“๐ŸŒ

Felipe recently shared a presentation about his experience on the 10-month programme, looking back at everything he learned, experienced, and achieved along the way.

From his time at CICD to his project abroad, it was a chance to reflect on the journey and share it with the community. ๐ŸŒฑ

A journey completed, lessons learned, and a whole new chapter ahead. ๐Ÿ’š
