The
training equipped vitongojimama and baba with the knowledge on the
goals and objectives of the project, reporting procedures of technical
issues, overall monitoring activities and basic skills to identify
behavioural and social emotional changes occurring in the participating
children and their families in the course of fifteen months of the field
test, corresponding to the period which children will interact with the
software.
The
vitongoji mama and baba are key players for the success of the
implementation of the project, and building their capacity in terms of
the project knowledge, was one of the most relevant milestones regarding
the preparation of the field testing and will contribute to empower
members of rural, remote and underprivileged communities.
