Note on request for additional support 2006

The support system extended by ASHA for Education is helped the Magu Madhura Kalike (MMK) process in a right direction.

  • The advocacy regarding primary education with the government, education department and with the local community has been successfully achieved. The achievements are indicated by various outcomes. One of the major out come is formation of state level education forum. At present this forum facilitated 3 meetings at different parts of the state. Now this forum strengthened the collective voice of those who working in the field of education especially primary education. The forum decided to hold meetings once in three months to discuss the current scenario of the education and work as a watchdog.
  • As you aware at the beginning stage of MMK the advocacy process has been hindered due to lack of financial support. At present MMK is strengthened and achieved its advocacy and lobbying by the support extended from ASHA and made the process independent.
  • Magu Madhura Kalike (MMK) has been visualized, designed and produced number of supportive materials and manuals, which in turn put into effect for concept clarity on education, incorporate gender and social and indigenous values in the learning process. The material brought under this process has a good response from the field practitioners.
  • As you aware there is a thirst on various model text books and guidelines on value education, gender, equity and so on. MMK strongly believes that such model textbook will serve the purpose and MMK is working on these models in the next phase.

Understanding the above factors I hope you will consider my request and sanction the additional support for 2006.

The details of the additional proposal are enclosed for your perusal.
