GoTeach Activities
GoTeach aims to improve employability by equipping young people with the skills and professional contact needed to prepare them for the world of work.
For over a decade, GoTeach has developed a broad and diverse portfolio with the potential to create activities that are perfectly adapted to the local context and, therefore, are ideally suited to the needs of the young people they are intended to help.
The activities are based on best-practice examples and feedback collected over many years. We will be growing the library of activities throughout 2023 and the years to come. This will certainly provide good guidance and guarantee quality of the program.
Employability journey - interventions and intended outcomes
Realizing real change in the lives of young people requires a multidimensional approach. It is with this in mind that GoTeach brings together three program pillars, Expose - Explore – Practice, into one holistic program. After gaining insights into the world of work through the "Expose" and "Explore" activities, the "Practice" pillar can complement the offer in due consideration of the individual needs of young people and the possibilities available at DHL. GoTeach offers a blended approach of online and face-to-face activities.
From 2023 onwards, the minimum requirement in GoTeach is implementing 3 interventions for the same group of young people in one calendar year. Mandatory activities have been defined und summarized under the "Expose" and "Explore" pillar. In addition, activities from the "Practice" pillar can complement the offer after meeting the basic requirements first.
General Recommendations
- A combination of mentorship and practical activities has proven to be particularly effective, with long-term activities more efficient than one-off events.
- Activities should be implemented together with young people on the basis of their individual needs and interests.
- Partners should look for solutions to identify how best to bridge geographical barriers (schools, villages in remote areas).
- As the primary contact person for the young people, caregivers should be kept informed about the program. This can be done on an individual basis or through information events before activities start. Caregivers should also be invited to graduation ceremonies and involved in the event that conflicts need to be resolved.
- Remember that the program will not be perfect from the outset: Stay open-minded and give stakeholders (children, young people, volunteers, caregivers, etc.) the chance to give feedback to continuously improve the activities.
