  • Reciting poetry in pairs – role of Pausing (30-40 min). People can bring a poem or google on the cell phone.
  • Mutual videography using cell phones, while talking to a “feared” contact (colleague, boss, family etc.) - this should bring out the question of Secondary behaviors (we may need 2-3 laptops to show people their own videos?) (time- about 1.5 hours)
  • Lunch

  • Mini Role plays on given scenario (1 hour)
  • Planning the Task for 6th March: we will make the group of 3 people each, ensuring that every group has at least one woman. These groups will be asked to interview strangers and find out their views on “Women’s day” (is it relevant for India? Where are women more oppressed, east or west? Urban or rural? Etc. etc.). While interviewing, they have to demonstrate good body language and use some technique. They will take brief notes. 
  • Dinner with Sachin

6th March

  • We go out to some public place (Park, shopping mall, Bust stand?) and do the above exercise. Time- 2.5 to 3 hours.
  • Return to the meeting hall. Energizer by SHGBLR. Then, groups will briefly share their findings. The group members may give feedback to each other about their communication (and other things) during this opinion poll.
  • Lunch
  • Road Map exercise- participants will brainstorm in sub-groups and develop a personal roadmap for next one year (what do they want to achieve? How? What commitment does it demand? How will they go about it?) – this is to be done both for the person him/herself – as well as collectively for the SHGBLR. What do you want SHGBLR to do more? How? 
  • Q&A and then wind up

7th March

  • Bike ride
