📚 Four Days of Learning, One Shared Purpose: Barefoot Teachers Training

Great teaching begins with understanding how children learn. 🌱

From 5th to 8th October 2026, a four-day Barefoot Teachers Training Programme was conducted to strengthen the skills and capacities of grassroots teachers. The training explored child development, learning levels, qualities of a good teacher and joyful, child-centred teaching methods. Participants also prepared low-cost Teaching-Learning Materials and explored action rhymes, songs and educational games to make learning more engaging.

The training aimed to help teachers create classrooms where every child feels included, encouraged and excited to learn. 💛

“Empowered teachers. Joyful classrooms. Brighter futures.” ✨

🩸 Breaking the Silence: Menstrual Health for Everyone

Sometimes, breaking a taboo begins with a simple question. 💛

On 8th October 2026, a Menstrual Health and Hygiene awareness session was conducted at Khanna High School with 150 students. Initially, there was hesitation about involving boys. But as the session progressed, several boys came forward with genuine curiosity and thoughtful questions, wanting to understand menstruation and learn how they could support their peers.

The session showed why menstrual health education must include everyone. When boys become informed, they can become allies in creating a more open and supportive environment. 🌸

Break the silence. Build understanding. Create change. ✨

👜 More Than a Bag: Crafting Hope at Sonagachi

On 1st October 2026, the MIST Project conducted a capacity-building training with the Women's Group of Sonagachi, where participants learned to make cloth tote bags through stitching and crafting. 🌸

But these were more than bags. Through every stitch, the women channelled their resilience and experiences into something tangible and meaningful.

What they created was not just a product. It was a symbol of strength, creativity, and the quiet but powerful journey from pain to possibility. 💛

"Every stitch a story. Every bag a new beginning." ✨

🌿 Walking the Ground: A Funder’s Visit to KMWSC

On 28th and 29th September 2026, Ms. Nicoletta Regazzoni from Switzerland visited two KMWSC project locations, gaining a first-hand perspective of the communities and programmes supported by KMWSC. 🌟

At Sonagachi, she observed the Red Light Project, interacted with mothers and children and witnessed a health check-up camp at the resource centre. The following day, she visited the Brickfield School Project in Kalyani, reviewing the curriculum, lesson plans and teaching methods, exploring the sack farming initiative and meeting migrant families living and working in the brickfields. 💛

The visit offered meaningful opportunities to understand community realities, programme approaches and the changes taking place on the ground. 🌸

When we walk alongside communities, their stories become clearer, their voices stronger.
