  Social Work Intern

  Interned as a part of the Play and Learn (PAL) Project with vulnerable NEET youth (Youth Not in Education, Employment or Training) who come out of the country's more than 9000 child care institutions (CCIs). Using a self-directed learning and guided play technique, the interventions for children in need of care and protection (CNCP) and children in conflict with the law focused on teaching skill development and life skills and an experiential entrepreneurship course that seeks to introduce entrepreneurial skills and mindsets to the children.As an intern, I also had the opportunity to lead a group work session with girls from Government Homes for Girls on menstrual practices and hygiene, which focused on a detailed explanation of menstruation as a normal biological process, hygiene, and dispelling myths and superstitions about menstrual practices.
