A workshop on self awareness was conducted for the first year BA and BSW students on 9th March 2023. It was a whole day session organized in the amphitheater of the college. The resource person for the session was Ms Rushila Rebello . She initiated by teaching the students about self-awareness and how important it is to understand one's wants, needs and desires as well as strength and weakness. When she asked the students to place a paper plate on another’s back and write something good on them in one word, students were curious to know what others thought about them and the appreciation received was indeed pleasant. Secondly, the talk on gender sensitization helped students to understand the difference between sex and gender and determine the assumption in matters of gender which is valid in terms of stereotypes. After lunch, teamwork was the topic of discussion. The resource person asked the students point of view and an activity was conducted with a clear picture of why team is essential and its benefits. Finally, students were asked about leadership and its types with activities. Thus teamwork enabled students to share ideas and responsibilities, which helped reduce stress by letting every individual be meticulous in completing the task.

Students were motivated from the content delivered. It is of great aid in building clarity. They also enjoyed the session since the resource person was filled with enthusiasm. The subject was well researched, well organized and well-presented. Overall it was an excellent session!. A total of 69 students participated in the workshop.
