This friday dated 29th January, I along with my co-delegate Durga went to Kiland Senteret. The program was organised by the Grimstad Red Cross Youth and we were invited there. The program was with asylum seekers. There were altogether 36 youths. It was very nice to be there. It was our first experience with the asylum seekers. That is also one of the reason that we were excited to be with them. All of them were youths and very active doing much more fun.
In between the activities, they, without any hesitation, started to dance among themselves. They were happy to be there. So, I feel like, taking them out of asylum center and make them enjoy within themselves with certain activities like skating, skiing, and other lots of fun is one of the good aspect of Red Cross Youth.
It was also a good experience for us because we had a three hours course of Human Trafficking with them on Saturday noon. It became interesting also because some of them are not good in English and some of them are not in Norwegian so we had to put translators both in Norwegian and Dari language because most of them speak Dari language. Any way we had managed to show them a picture of overall condition of Human trafficking in the world and also make them feel with some role plays and discussion sessions.
We along with having fun also had some Active choice course before dinner on Friday Grimstad Red Cross Youth put on their effort to make them understand all the thing that they were telling there. They also showed how to use condom properly there and make them practice in dildoes.
They had a social dinner by the side of fireplace with roasting pølse. Since we were vegeterian, we had to prepare spagetti ourselves. Then after we had some social games like cards but some of them were dancing very happily in the arabian music.
We had outdoor activities in the snow, some of them had brought ski stuffs with them and some of them had brought skating shoes, They were exchanging things and trying both skating as well as skiing and also there are others who are having fun in the snow by throwing snow balls or burying people in snow.
I also tried skiing (Cross Country) in the lake. It was great fun. We returned back at 17:00 on Saturday.
