July 3, 2009 : Job Report Presentation
Training Report - Decent work course
In this training course, the participants are asked to write three reports: Job Reports, Project Plan, and Progress Report. Job Reports were already prepared by the participants before coming to Japan. Project Plans will be written while they are staying in Japan, and Progress Reports will be obliged to submit after returning back to their home countries.
Today's afternoon the participants presented their first report, Job Reports, at JICA Tokyo. It opened to the public, so JICA provided Japanese-English interpreters and Japanese sign language interpreters.
The participants gave a presentation focusing on their duties at their organizations in their home countries.

Each participant could use 20 minutes for presentation and 15 minutes for question and answer session, however actual time of his/her presentation became half of it because of interpretations. So participants had to carefully choose the slides from their power points.
A number of NGO staff, who were interested in disability and development issues attended today's program and they raised a lot of questions and comments. After all the presentations, all the participants including the planning committee members gave comments to each one of presentations.
From the presentations, the participants and the Japanese related personals could understand what each participant does at their work and also the employment situation of persons with disabilities as well as issues in their country.
