We specially wish to congratulate you for making it to 2013. The Sharing Education and Learning for Life (SELL) Foundation is grateful to God for all her work with the young people that she has met and those that the programme has created an impact in them. Bearing in mind the Foundation’s Vision Statement; “young people with compassionate hearts; building peaceful community”, the SELL Foundation has always had hope in the young people knowing clearly that the young people are agents of change and that change is possible.
Therefore, in 2013, we hope to keep with this Vision by working in communities with support of the Facilitators who are trained and the ones that we hope to train.
Our outline of programme for 2013 includes; Community Trainings, Mentoring Trainings, Workshops, Refresher and Annual General Meeting, etc. Details of this shall be reported in subsequent blogs each time it happens.
Before I end this blog, I will like to give you a brief update of the community training of facilitators that happen last December at the Interfaith Vocational Youth Training Centre, Bokkos, Plateau State, Nigeria.

The training was on 14th – 18th December 2012 and ten young adults attended. The unit shared was the Self - Awareness Unit of SELL. When the training started, participants gave the following as things that attracted them to the SELL Programme because they have all experienced the workshop at one point before they were selected for the training. They said the SELL Programme is very educative, interactive, unique and has a simple approach. In view of this, they will want to take part in sharing it with other young people, and that is what have motivated them to come for the training.
It was a very interesting group to work with because they were very open and were asking very useful questions that help in furthering the cause of the training. Also during the training, the participants were shared into study groups and given handout material to study and present to the larger group. They all did their best being that it was the first time they were making such a presentation in a SELL gathering. The Resource Team appreciates Hilda the leader of the Jos Area team and the other Jos Area Team members for organising the training. Hilda was with us at the training to take care of our feeding and other logistics.

While the training was going on at Bokkos, the existing facilitators in Jos (the Area Team) -Alex, Grace and Beji were out there running a SELL workshop at a Computer Institute in Jos. According to Grace who gave us the report of the workshop, the unit of SELL covered was Self – Awareness. They had 21 participants and it was an interfaith group. In recent time, the Jos area Team had have cause to run 3 workshops at a stretch, the SELL Resource Team cannot applaud the Jos Area Team enough for their zeal to share this programme with others.
On a final note for this week, we are grateful to God and to you for being part of our 2012, we look forward to a better 2013 together. From the Resource Team, we say a big thank you!
