PROCESS DESCRIPTION
DAY 4
Defreezing Exercise:
What I Like About
My Job In this defreezing exercise, participants are asked what they like best about their present job. The objective of this exercise is to enhance pride and contentment in their job by capitalizing on its positive aspects. It would be well to note carefully any aspects brought up by the participants which can be used as starting points for later challenges in child advocacy.

The Interviewer and
the Interviewee Additional inputs are given on the desirable behaviors of interviewers and their impact on interviewees. The cause and effect relationship is explored, and participants are made aware of the importance of both the said and the unsaid, the tangible and the intangible, in determining the outcome of an interview.
Learning Reinforcement
Synthesis of the Day's
Learnings
Reflections on Child
Advocacy This is a free-wheeling discussion on roles, issues, concerns and constraints regarding child advocacy. Participants are encouraged to air all their doubts, reservations, and anxieties about their forthcoming role in the child labor effort. This discussion must be managed very well since the discussion can well deteriorate into a gripe session if focus is lost or replaced by other concerns.
