Event Overview: The inaugural EmpowerMe Talks workshop, hosted by the Watoto Afrika Initiative in partnership with Bright Africans Inc., took place on Saturday 26^th October 2024 at Amphitheater Mikocheni with great success. Sponsored by Nafasi Art Space and Coca-Cola Kwanza, the event was held under the inspiring theme “Moral Minds, Empowered Lives.” The focus of the workshop was on moral education, specifically addressing the topic of “tabia njema” (moral education).

Workshop Content: The workshop aimed to instill fundamental principles of moral education and ethics in children. The session began with an engaging lecture on the basics of moral education, emphasizing the importance of good behavior and ethical conduct in daily life. The children were encouraged to ask questions, fostering an interactive and inclusive learning environment.

Interactive Learning: Each child had the opportunity to share what they had learned, promoting active participation and reinforcing the day’s lessons. This segment allowed the children to articulate their understanding and reflect on the importance of moral values.

Games and Activities: To test the children’s attentiveness, sharpness, and retention of the session’s content, a series of games and activities were organized. These activities were not only educational but also fun, ensuring that the children remained engaged and enthusiastic throughout the workshop.

Lunch Break: A well-deserved lunch break provided the children with the chance to relax and enjoy a meal together. This break also served as a socializing opportunity, allowing the children to bond and share their experiences from the morning session.

Conclusion: The first EmpowerMe Talks workshop was a resounding success, effectively combining education with interactive activities to teach children about moral values and ethics. The collaboration between Watoto Afrika Initiative, Bright Africans Inc., Nafasi Art Space, and Coca-Cola Kwanza created a supportive and enriching environment for the children. The positive feedback from the participants highlighted the workshop’s impact, setting a strong foundation for future EmpowerMe Talks events.
