Hello again NANGAR!<br />
<br />
I have some more input for your... digestion. Food for thought!<br />
<br />
I found a very interesting resource that applies to your objectives 2,3, and 5.<br />
<br />
It is about involving people to facilitate their own self-help groups. This means sharing personal knowledge and insights local to a shared problem... sound like fodder for objective 2? It also addresses what I see as one of the points behind objective 3, networking, which is an under-appreciated problem for the poor. Little…
Hello again NANGAR!<br />
<br />
I have some more input for your... digestion. Food for thought!<br />
<br />
I found a very interesting resource that applies to your objectives 2,3, and 5.<br />
<br />
It is about involving people to facilitate their own self-help groups. This means sharing personal knowledge and insights local to a shared problem... sound like fodder for objective 2? It also addresses what I see as one of the points behind objective 3, networking, which is an under-appreciated problem for the poor. Little social capital and bum socialization (that's from local insight, by the way). And offers empowerment, such as for poor women sharing similar problematic situations.<br />
<br />
Here's the link: <a href="http://www.selfhelp.on.ca/start.html" target="_blank">http://www.selfhelp.on.ca/start.html</a><br />
<br />
I think the facilitation of self-help groups may be the key to building sustainable community connections - and so a key to the success of your resource centre.<br />
<br />
Also (dessert):<br />
<br />
I am totally on board for getting a computer and some equipment with the US$1000. But I am interested to reckon future sources of donation or income to maintain the place.<br />
<br />
provide us a timetable, just an estimate, doesn't have to be exceptionally detailed, starting from, i duno, when you get the US$1000 maybe. People who read and judge business plans love that kind of stuff, I've heard.<br />
<br />
Oh yeah. So Bin Qasim Town. Do you live nearby/for how long? If so sneak that in and peeps will appreciate that you know the lay of the land. Also, if you can find out, it would probably look really good on you if you knew how far the next closest resource centre is and how different it is from what you are proposing.<br />
<br />
Alright, time to clear away the dishes. Hope there was some nutritional content in there for you.<br />

Hello Nangar, dear fellow!<br />
I would take out the last ine " I do not know about...." you have to show them that you know what you are talking about! come on!<br />
I would actually search for more funding support and back this evokation by pointing a list of possible parallel funding sources.<br />
I would not use the 1000 for office equipment, I would use them to start the micro-credit or micro-savings, so you make sure those 1000 USD turn into more money soon.<br />

I would also ad a summary of the intention of your project in a short paragraph, answer yourself the question WHY I DO THIS? and put it there ;-)<br />
Finally I would suggest you to invite/recruit University students to fill in the part:<br />
"There would be few learned and educated people engaged for supervision of resource centre and planning for its development and expansion in terms of services and quality" and reflect this in your final draft.<br />
Hope my input helps!<br />

Jeremy, Thanks for very valuable comments. Yes the deal is there, Two room has been promised and It is okay to start with it. Secondly Indigenous Knowledge is only one component of it. The main thing is to provide a resource centre to community for availablity of right information on social programmes through the volunteers who have knowledge. I would translate your input into practical examples in the final proposal. I am gratefull for such a thorough input. thanks

Overally, I enjoyed reading it and you are an awesome Evoker!<br />
<br />
and now for my attempt to make some critical comments, in no special order, and if I sound like a know-it-all, that is because I need to improve my writing voice, it's just food for thought and I know you wanted constructive criticism:<br />
<br />
"Community at the target area is willing to allocate two rooms portion of building initial without any rent to start the Resource Centre."<br />

<br />
"Community at the target area is willing to allocate two rooms portion of building initial without any rent to start the Resource Centre."<br />
<br />
Is this true or hoped for? If you have already arranged this deal, make it way clearer that you have and emphasize it. It would powerfully show that you are on your way, imho. If you haven't made the deal yet, make sure that you rewrite the sentence to make that clear.<br />
<br />
Citing the demographics = shows thoroughness.<br />
<br />
"It is said beginning is half done, once it is started more hands would join to support and strengthen it"<br />
<br />
- as per your dialogue with ninmah, I would axe this tone of 'hope' and replace it with a tone of 'look at all these facts. this is happening'.<br />
<br />
It seems like one of the major ideas is to help people by providing indigenous knowledge. A single example would help a lot I think.<br />
