Currently I am working with The Panaah Community as a community associate. The Panaah Community is a project under Leadership for Skilled Education Foundation with the aim to build resilient communities that refuse to let children down. The Panaah Community runs community centres that become agents of change and excellence in addition to mobilizing the community to advocate for quality education and bring awareness about government welfare benefits. As they were in their initial phase, I was hired full time for the first five months. Now I am working as an advisor about how to increase student attendance, understanding parent’s expectations and work accordingly and community level issues. For those first five months my role was to spread awareness about bridge programmes and coordinate between parents and Panaah Communities in various communities. I was representing Panaah Communities. As a representative I was responsible for finding places for community centres, meeting concerned persons and talking to them to be a part of the organization by allowing them to use their space. I engaged with parents and children and encouraged them to join our initiatives. I Was working on the ground, managing the operations, logistics, taking care of the structures (centre structure, taking care of the attendance, maintaining mentors data etc).i was the one who was arranging the staff meetings, PTMs, and schools to talk to school stakeholders. I was the POC of multiple community centres. I used to provide a weekly report to internal stakeholders and a monthly report on new ideas to external stakeholders, etc. During the process I was able to learn to deal with various kinds of people. This was a great experience because now I am able to deal with varied people.
