Who are your Beneficiaries?

They are the people/target audience who will benefit from your community project.

For CSSP, your beneficiaries are your students/teachers/school staff.

You should seek your beneficiaries' feedback. The feedback provides you and your juniors the following insights to your community projects:

• How your project had positively impacted their lives;

• To motivate & inspire your group members to create more impactful projects in the future;

• To improve your future projects; and

• To build self-confidence and teamwork when speaking with strangers.

How can I obtain feedback from beneficiaries?

Your beneficiaries can provide feedback in three ways:

• Video - through your mobile phone video camera but do ask permission first - you can showcase the videos on your micro-sites

• Audio - you can use your phone to record the dialogue with your beneficiaries

• Written - beneficiaries can just complete a short simple survey form or you can transcribe it for them

Sample script to use when approaching the public:

"Good Morning Sir/Madam. I am (name) from (school) NPCC. I am currently carrying out an NPCC project to educate students on (your project focus).

You will help me greatly if I can ask you some questions. May I record you?

Thank you so much for your time. I hope this event had been useful for you.

Some tips for the interview :

• Make it short - less than ONE minute

• Basic questions -

  • • "How do you think this project has helped you and the community?"

    • "How can we improve our project?"

• Try to have your interview in English-speaking. Otherwise, do add subtitles in your videos, or attach a transcript.

• Always be polite and SMILE!

• Practice your interview technique and have FUN!
