The following testimony comes from a particpant in a Gender at Work-facilitated Action Learning Process:
"Juma never gave up hope of attending school. He eventually became a role model. “Katana,” a class 8 pupil ... has registered considerable improvement in his class work since Juma has served as a role model. Katana’s mother says, “All he thought about was football and lazing about with his friends. It was impossible to tell that he was a school-going pupil! He would never listen to my instructions… and I was very worried about his end result….But now, he has a time-table and sticks to it. He is now respectful. I thought he was being nice because exams were nearing and wanted to win my favour in case he failed; but now I see that he is changed for the better.”
