17. 16. Feed back

18. From students First hand experience for students to understand the rural life and conditions Zeal to learn traditional/value addition rural skills Difficult to contact farm women during day time due to their involvement in home and farm activities Students need prior training in agriculture related technologies Safe accommodation for girl students needed All India Tour, RAWE and Industrial placement all in same Sem and the huge expenditure

21. Host institutions (Placement institutions/ industries) Opportunity for hands on training Job creators than seekers Highlighted the success stories of the farm families through media Students possess theoretical knowledge; needs practical orientation Need to increase the duration of placement Meghalaya - problems due geopolitical issues and frequent bandh.

22. Faculty Students developed dignity of labour and confidence Duration for skill development needs to be increased Co-operation needed by development departments Allotment of vehicle was essential exclusively for RAWE Private sectors and organisations/units and practitioners are not positive towards accommodating student trainees RAWE guide lines should be clear and common for all Home Science colleges No incentives for being a group teacher; teachers should be selected based on course load; TA DA not separately ear marked

23. 17. Important innovations/technologies introduced as part of RAWE Low cost nutritious value added products for health security Low cost play materials for all round development of children Drudgery reducing and income generating technologies Care and construction of clothing Nutrition and child care information provided to the farming community.

30. Points for discussion Arriving at common RAWE program which would include the duration, credits, grading Attachment to KVKs, RSKs, ARS Common syllabus Improving the financial position of students
