The national experience sharing meeting among entrepreneurial students concluded successfully

Hosted from August 14th to 21st, 2023, the national experience sharing event brought together students engaged in micro-projects under the project “Entrepreneurship-Focused Socio-Emotional Skills for the Most Vulnerable Youth in Rural Mongolia,” implemented by Save the Children. This meeting took place at the “Nairamdal” international children’s camp.

A total of 78 children and 8 teachers participated in the gathering, with two representatives hailing from each of the 39 secondary schools located in the project’s targeted areas.

The students who had undertaken the micro-projects convened on August 20th for a concluding session. During this session, they summarized the additional events organized by the project and shared insights gained from their participation in the 9th round program at the “Nairamdal” camp. Moreover, they formulated a plan to disseminate their newfound experiences to others in the future.

At the concluding meeting, the young participants not only shared their impressions and cherished memories of the camp but also discussed strategies for conveying the valuable experiences they acquired through the activities of the “Entrepreneur Club” to fellow students enrolled in the “ESEL” training program at their respective schools. Additionally, 10 students presented their micro-projects, detailing their experiences and insights in the presence of special guests.

T. Tungalag, the chief methodologist of the “Nairamdal” camp, expressed her delight at the active involvement of rural children in all aspects of the camp programs under the project. She extended her well wishes to these students for their continued success in their academic pursuits and endeavors.

During the meeting, the 78 students participating in the Experience Sharing meeting shared general information about the ESEL program and the micro-projects they were implementing with other children at the camp. They also demonstrated some of the works of their mini-project initiatives.

After several enjoyable days at the camp, the ESEL students departed with a wealth of positive experiences and a strong determination to accomplish great things. They left reluctantly bidding farewell to the friends and teachers who had become like family during their time at the camp.

With their bright futures ahead and a fervent passion for learning and achievement, these students are poised to make a positive impact.
