Evaluation

Timeline:

In 2023 we will provide 12 cycles of training sessions. The specific schedule of each cycle and session is set by the Project Coordinator.

Our surfing instructors assess the progress of our participants in the beginning and end of the program based on their accomplishments, which we evaluate by a questionnaire. The effects of our program activities are clearly observed by our participants at the behavioral, emotional and cognitive levels.

We expect the following outcomes by the end of the first year:

80% of the participants improve their communication, sense of belonging and social and life skills.
80% of the participants improve their situation in general. This is measured by attendance rates, decrease in the number of violent incidents and significant progress in their engagement with the community.
80% of the participants adopt new behavioral patterns and learn to cope with personal and interpersonal issues.
80% of the participants enhance their self-esteem and reduce their anger and frustration.
50% of them return to their educational frameworks and fit into the environment, which is reflected in how they face challenges, achieve goals and engage with community.
80% of the participants decrease social isolation.
80% of the graduates will remain in contact with the organization and take part in social events, advanced surf training and other communal initiatives.
