Baseline Survey at Kavresthali
Extending the horizon of the empowering the marginalized community, VIN is starting its volunteer service at Kavresthali community (Tarkeshwor Municipality). Like in the past, before VIN starts its programs in any community this time as well VIN is conducting a baseline survey at Kavresthali in order to understand the community in detail so that VIN can plan and implement the programs accordingly.
To conduct the survey VIN has the support of the local volunteers form the community itself. VIN first trained those selected volunteers for the survey. After the selection they were categorized in different groups and sent to different parts of the community to conduct the survey. The volunteers successfully conducted the required survey and got all ready for the social mapping and geographical information of the community. In the duration of 1st June 2016 to 20th June 2016, volunteers with the help of community members the volunteers gathered information about the geography, local resources, facilities, houses, population, family structure, economic condition and activities, health status and so forth. Those collected data VIN takes for the sample of social mapping program. Also after the social mapping VIN initiates focused group discussion where the volunteers will compile all the required information that will be further used for analysis and conduct the programs accordingly.
