Members of Junior Chamber International (JCI) Dhaka West Chapter at the induction ceremony in Gazipur

On the chilly morning of January 5, Friday, the newly recruited general members of the Junior Chamber International (JCI) Dhaka West started their fun-filled journey with the organisation through the excursion at Reverie Holiday Resort, Gazipur with other existing members and the current President Mehedi Hossain.
The day started with group energiser and an exciting activity of dividing the members into six groups through the distinctive sound and dance moved. Then, they were asked to write their team strengths onto own name cards. This activity showed how we have diverse strengths in different random group settings. Impact talks followed this with three members sharing how they came to JCI and what they achieved over time and how they see their future in terms of affecting communities.
The team then went through various ice breaking and team building sessions to create bonding amongst themselves. The members, in groups, then brainstormed project ideas and presented them focusing on the UN SDGs. Teams were then formed on the best ideas to be taken forward to the GMM as project proposals. The Immediate Past Local President and National Director, Ziaul Haque Bhuiyan, after conducting some team building activities, took a session on the history and interesting facts of JCI. The team were amused at the insightful presentation.
