During my time in Zambia, I was quick to jump into the activities going on at my host organization. I loved working with the Girl Power group and did everything from teaching them how to make friendship bracelets and banana pancakes to diving into conversations about peer pressure, healthy relationships, and pregnancy. I also led workshops with the teachers, where we discussed creating meaningful and memorable lesson plans, the art of teaching and student advocacy, and navigating Microsoft PowerPoint. I really enjoyed engaging in some of the administrative duties as well, such as program management, scheduling, creating components of an active business plan, and grant writing.
