What was your funniest moment?
The most funniest thing was my starting couple of days when I didn't really know what to expect, yet had to communicate with some of the stakeholders in my work without being able to speak the same language, especially at the migrant workers' relief camp. We had to speak some Hindi language words as well as use non-verbal communication to understand and effectively communicate with the people.It ended up being one of my best cross-cultural overseas internship experience.

What would you improve about this program?
1. Be strict with and out errant immature volunteers if they do not wish to do serious work (please do not tolerate gossipy and judgemental errant volunteers). It spoils the experience of the ones who have come to work and learn. Do not bother about their negative and false reviews posted out of their own lack of understanding and vengefulness.
2. Create structure for those who feel overwhelmed in the Indian work culture

Great Professional & Personal Growth Experience in India

EduCARE India is an organisation where you can a learn a lot. You grow because you're given a lot of autonomy and independence and thus have to find the best way to carry out your projects yourself even though that doesn't mean you can't seek support from your mentor. You learn how to research, plan, execute, follow-up and ensure continuity of your project. If you're able to succeed here you're probably likely to succeed anywhere given the challenges inherent to development work.

Genuine organisation giving leadership opportunity to young people

It was one of the finest experience for me and my partner to work in this NGO in 2014. It was lovely to see and meet the local people again during our recent revisit to India.
It was great to see some international interns in leadership job roles doing a great job.

They have done a good job despite a group of international volunteers creating lot of problems as they didn't fit in. I hope that despite misconduct of some international interns, the NGO will continue to give leadership opportunities to young people.

What would you improve about this program?
Better filtration of applicants during recruitment so that only positive and motivated interns are recruited.
