Despite societal unrest and political challenges in Chad the Blue Cross Life Skills programme is making a difference in the lives of Chadian youth. The team of peer educators and staff have learned how to collect information from the project activities to an on-line database. There is very little evidence based information and statistics available from Chad and therefore this information collecting system is ground breaking development. We will work with the local team transforming this information in a format that we can show the progress and impact of the life skills activities. Each project has taken a baseline study to see how the youth saw variety of issues at the start of a life skills programme. Now the on-going data collection enables us to compare to the baseline data and show progress within time.
Knowledge is power and it enables services to develop their efficiency and optimise the positive outcomes. This data collection really empowers the local team to better respond to the needs of the local youth and I hope it also convinces you as donors of the importance of this work. Once the data has been inputted I look forward to sharing some of the results with you.
