List of Collaboration Opportunities
Voluntary Teach Of College Student Project
Every year, the Lighthouse Project starts a volunteer recruitment campaign in March at major universities in Guangzhou. After screening through interviews and training, about 120 college students are sent to 6-8 volunteer teaching sites in the summer for a month-long volunteer teaching activity.
During the month-long volunteer teaching process, Lighthouse has its own set of proven vernacular and community-based lesson series, as well as supporting curriculum. Its curriculum format includes scenario-based simulations, group discussions, and student practices designed to encourage students to actively participate in the teaching and learning process. In addition to the curriculum, activities are also an important part of the Lighthouse curriculum. Volunteers will organize related activities in conjunction with the main lines of the curriculum to create a stage for students to showcase themselves and get on their own stage to express themselves, one of the few opportunities for students to get to know themselves better and develop self-confidence.
Resources Needed:
- Collaboration with NGOs: Need other NGOs to participate in this action
- Need for Specific Role: Need experts from the industry to teach classes
Invitation To Travel Project
By leading city people to support rural education with paid trips - inviting city people to the mountainous areas where the Yao people live, to join the Yao children for nature experience learning, outdoor hiking, and family hospitality in the homes of the Yao people; and inviting the Yao children to visit the university in Guangzhou to participate in diversified courses, meet outstanding people from all walks of life, learn about diverse values, and develop their interest in learning and motivation to dream.
The project held a 5-day "China Rural-Urban Youth Public Welfare Linkage" field research activity in the summer, in which urban children and Yao children from Damai Mountain, Liannan, Guangdong, formed a team to carry out 5-day grouping tasks, such as collecting folk songs from Damai Mountain, researching Yao embroidery and costumes, designing tourism routes in Damai Mountain, and finding folk craft masters. During the activities, the children from both regions communicated with each other, supported each other, and gained friendship and growth.
Resources Needed:
- More Volunteers: Need more well-trained volunteers to help organize the activities
