It's me again to share what I learned from the second day of the ASEM Youth Learners' Mobility Workshop ka.
Because of the time difference, we only had our sessions in the afternoon for 2-3 hours and the second afternoon was on design thinking exercises for us adults to design types of programs that would be best for our younger generation.
We, adult participants, were divided into 4 groups, each had representatives of both Europe and Asia ka.
The main organizers (SEAMEO RIHED and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs) asked Khun May and her team from LUKKID to lead and facilitate the design thinking process ka.
Each of the 4 groups had to interview one young participant who may or may not have had exchange experience before.....heard that one didn't like the idea of mobility at all even.
My group welcomed a young Cambodian girl who was passionate about exchanges mak ka. She shared her exciting opportunities, power of networking, and how she witnessed global problems that struck her ka. In fact, she's a real global citizen laew la ka.
We then had to identify what we heard to craft into questions and then brainstorm freely to come up with key issues/needs we should focus on before designing a poster we should launch to meet the interviewee's empathy for presentation to the four young representatives for their feedback ka.
When looking back, this was a productive exercise for adults to take kids' needs and experiences as priorities, not what adults think and are used to doing....their ways. It'd be great to see the opposite end having kids interview adults and let them identify what they learn too ka. I'm curious what they'll find.....could be both surprising and shocking mai ka?
The workshop left a very positive impression on me loei ka.
