On 19 January 2018, VIN has conducted time management class to women of Kaure of Kavresthali community by mobilizing international and local volunteers. The main objectives of thia program was to teach women better time management in daily work and to reduce stress by using time management techniques.
Women are the invisible leaders among the family and society. They have the biggest role in different parts of the sector but the bitter truth: they barely get time to know themselves. Most of the time, they spend time to take care of their children and household activities. So, most of the women stressed when they repeatedly have to do same thing and same routine. VIN planned to lower their stress through time management skills. It was their first time to hear about this topic. It surprised them and eagerly participated in the program.
The class started with introduction through games. It was full of fun. Eight participants showed up in the class. The class was conducted through presentation which was structured in theoretical and practical ways. The participants were asked if they have some concept about time management skills or if they ever estimated theirs to do list activities. They hardly answered as it was their first time hearing it. Our International volunteer, Azusa delivered the concept of time management skills and she gave her example to make them more understanding and familiar about how she managed the time and planned the to do list activities the day before which helped her to take control on everything. Women were taught to prioritize to list their activities, estimate the time to finish the work and later distinguish the most important tasks and less important task which would help to manage their time and lower the stress at the same time.
The participants were asked to be more serious about the short term and long term goals. If they could manage time and they would be able to achieve their goals and feel high self-esteem. The classes was based in interactive activities so many women shared about their ideas and how they are managing everything till now. They realized the importance of time calculation and plan to reach their short term and long term goals.
