  3. Youth Club Exchange Programme (YCEP):

  Background

  The Youth Clubs are the main catalytic agents in development programmes initiated by the Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan (NYKS).  NYKS has been strengthening Youth Clubs by mainstreaming its programmes for their capacity building.  The Youth Club Awards, Financial Assistance to Youth Clubs, Capacity Building programmes of its members and many more are the programmes to support Youth Clubs and to strengthen them. To further identify their potentials and to train them to take up responsible roles in their community/village, NYKS has developed this network of youth clubs which have always risen to the call given by it, be its super cyclone in Orissa, Earthquake in Bhuj and J&K or valour march to commemorate 1857.

  In this background, Youth Club Exchange Programme is mooted out by NYKS for members of all Youth Clubs and Mahila Mandals established in 501 districts of the country.  The YCEP may also be organized exclusively for the members of the selected Mahila Mandals. 

  Objectives

  • The participants will be enabled to understand the critical role of Youth Club or any community based organization towards bringing about change in their own surroundings for promotion of Peace & Development.
  • The participants will be able to appreciate the living conditions of people of other villages situated in different parts of the country, their day to day life, customs and traditions as well.
  • The participants will be motivated to work for the progress and development of their own villages and keep distance from anti social and anti national elements /groups operating in their area.
  • The participants will be able to imbibe the spirit of nationalism, brotherhood, camaraderie and develop respect for secular traditions prevailing in different parts of the country.

  These exchange visits between the youth clubs of not too far states (for the sake of cultural contiguity)  will help in confidence building that they CAN DO IT and improve upon their activities by mere act of emulation.

   Implementation Strategy 

  • A 10-day stay programme with the youth club
  • For effective implementation of this programme, the NYKS will by and large depend on its country wide vast network of more than 3.00 lacs village based Youth Clubs & Mahila Mandals formed in 501 districts of the country.
  • For each youth guest, 20 male & female escorts’ youth in equal ratio will be identified and selected by the ‘Host Youth Club’ so that personalized attention is provided during 10 days period of YCEP.
  • One day orientation and de-freezing exercises and general interaction with the members and walk through all the bastis/Mohallas of the host village.
  • Records, APRs, Accounting Books, Minutes of the Meetings and other documents of the host will be shown to the visiting youth club
  • During the 10 days YCEP, the Host Youth Club will organize sports & games, cultural evenings and also involve their guest visitors in various community development programmes & projects run by them like Tree Plantation, Work Camps, Village Sanitation Drive etc.
  • Through PRA exercises, the members of the Guest club will be made aware about village history and its up to date progress vis-à-vis day to day functioning of village Youth Club, SHGs, Aganwadi Centre, School, College, Primary Health Centre etc.
  • PRA exercise should be done on the third day and resource mapping of the village – a combined exercise of the visiting and host youth club for identifying problems, strengths of the village (SWOT analysis) – under the guidance of a resource person from a prominent NGO or Institute
  • An interactive session on the resources mapped and PRA combined and drawing of a self-supporting local need based action plan of the village. 
  • An interactive session with village elders and opinion leaders and PRI where the findings of Resource Mapping, PRA and Action Plan may also be discussed
  • Besides that out of the 10 days village placement period, a 02 days sight seeing will be arranged by the host youth club for all 45 participants including escorts. Amongst the important places to be visited by the participants may include famous Churches, Mosques, Temples, Gurudwaras, historical sites, and tourist spots, academic, scientific and technological establishments of the region.

  Operational Plan - The Grant will be given to eligible youth clubs as per the norms of the scheme (s). The youth club should purchase a computer under YDC Scheme in view of the affordable cost of PCs and need of the present time.  Willing youth club will contribute the balance amount.

  Part-II  :  CAPACITY BUILDING OF YOUTH

  5. Capacity Building of Youth:
   
  The theme of the programme is Empowered Youth. 

  The District Youth Coordinator should prepare the project proposal as per the local need & youth aspirations and get it approved from the concerned Zonal Director.   

  Objective

  The objective will be to develop leadership qualities among the youth through training so that they can act as focal point of dissemination of knowledge in their own area of activity and to make them aware about various schemes & programmes of Government and other Development Deptts/Agencies for youth development.

  Duration and the number of programmes

  The duration of the programme may be of 3 – 5 days depending upon the need/duration given by the training institute. The proposal for number of training programmes proposed to be organised by the Kendra should be approved by concerned Zonal Directors.

  No. of participants  

  The target is that after this programme, skills and knowledge of minimum 110 youth volunteers should be enhanced. These volunteers would be catalytic agents of social change. 

  Criteria for Enrollment of Participants:

  District Youth Coordinator should ensure that the participants are either Youth Club members or active youth involved in the programmes of the Kendra.

  MANDATORY

  The training should be organized at INSTITUTE where in-house/ residential training facilities are available.  Apart from the subject experts from the organizing Institute, Youth Coordinator would be free to invite outside social sector programme experts. Nominal honorarium may also be given to these outside experts.

  The training programme should be residential in nature and the institution providing the training should have the required infrastructure and facility to conduct training in a professional manner.

  Registration and Training material

  Youth Coordinator to ensure that on the day of arrival, apart from registration, participants are given kit bag, daily schedule and the training material

  MONITORING, EVALUATION & FEED BACK OF THE PARTICIPANTS

  The Training Monitoring and evaluation is essential to supervise and boost up the process of implementation. This should be done by the concerned District Youth Coordinator for all the activities organized during the training programme. Pre and post evaluation of the programme should be done. This would ensure the proper implementation of the programme and would create a positive impact on lives of people.

  On completion of the programme, an evaluation and Feedback session should be organized and the feed back of the participants should be taken on formats. The participatory tools & techniques should be applied for gauzing the mood of the participants.       
  Note
  Above are the general guidelines and suggestions; District Youth Coordinators may devise other innovative programme and activities as well, which achieve our objective much more effectively.  In fact, each training programme must have some unique features.

  FOLLOW UP

  Efforts should be made to tie up with the concerned department for launching massive campaign against the social problems.

  The district NYK should prepare a joint Plan of Action in consultation with the related department for making congenial environment to come out from the social problem. 

  BUDGET

   The budget for this programme is of Rs. 1,00,000/- per district NYKs. It may be ensured that under this programme, the skills and knowledge of minimum 110 youth volunteers are enhanced after training.

   Part-III SKILL DEVELOPMENT TRAINING PROGRAMME

   6. Skill up gradation Training Programme (SUTP) for women in 200 Border/Tribal/Backward Districts:

  As unemployment is one of the major problems of rural youth and hence NYKS has always been focusing its activities to solve these problems through its self-employment programmes and projects.  There is an increased emphasis on making the youth self-reliant and self-sufficient so that they can start business ventures in their own village and vicinity.  In fact, all through the years, Skill up gradation Programme remains the most important programme of NYKS as it promotes Sustainable & Gainful Employment.

   Aims & objective

  The programme aims at enhancing the skill level of youth and thereby enables them to take up self-employment activities.  Through such training programmes vocational skills of the rural youth are enhanced and updated. This enables the rural youth to supplement the income for existing occupation, improve productivity of existing skills and learn new skills for which there is increasing demand in the market.

This necessitates the need to showcase such talents not only to the country but to the entire world, provide them larger audience who can not only applaud them but also suggest them with some critical input for their improvement and further growth. 
  Keeping this in view NYKS proposed North Eastern Region National Youth Festival with   an objective to provide opportunities to the young people of both North-Eastern as well as other parts of the country to see different places of cultural interest, language, life style, culinary and sartorial habits, historical and cultural monuments, and also the leisure-time activities.  And  also  to  share  and  appreciate  each  others  traditional and  cultural heritage as well as development in different spheres of life and   encourage them to develop friendship with the people belonging to other parts of the country and to continue the friendship over the year.
  The dates and venue of the festival will be decided later on.  A total of   500 Youth from all 35 States and UTs will be participating in the programme.
