Similarly, they were also trained about various tools and techniques of advocacy and lobbing, according to the organizer. “Unlike a typical training session, this has become a learning camp for me with a lot of group works, play and lectures, which I believe will change my behavior and perspective toward democracy,” said Shardda Pradhan, a participant at the camp.
