How the Concept Emerged: |
|
The concept was not only simply clicked
in the mind. First of all it clicked when we were working in
longtail e-media. Here it is very necessary to give short
introduction of it. longtail e-media is a private
organization established in 2003. It's basic objective is to
develop presentations as a form of website and Interactive
Multimedia presentation for national and international
organization. Till the date every presentation developed by
longtail e-media is appreciated by its esteemed clients.
Therefore it always tried to develop manpower for from the
urban area. As Kathmandu is the capital of enormous
opportunity, youths mind diverted through the period of
training. Therefore it lacked youth with stable but
versatile mind.
Eventually, Bishwas mind was clicked that village could
be the best place. Demand and supply could be possible when
an individual seek for it. Simply giving is not enough.
There should be intention of taking. Then the person keeps
anything safely and pricelessly. So the mind of youths in
village. Where both of ours i.e. youth and longtail e-medias
interest meet the same point. |

| When we compare above two columns they are complementary. Only difference is that one is provider and other one is receiver. Both are ready to give and take. |
| Therefore Actual Concept

Moreover, y-cafe will establish Multimedia Design and Production Unit for national and international organization After the concept and motivation to make the concept concrete we were in search of a place in remote Nepal where we could establish a training center and production unit. We truly appreciate Suraj Bajrachary’s help in finding a place. Suraj Bajrachary had come up with two villages: Dhustung of Thimure VDC in Palpa District and Deurali of Varse VDC in Gulmi District. We then carried out Primary feasibility study. Our focused group is secondary and higher secondary class (10+2) student and interested youth. Need Asessment test typically focused on English language qualification, general knowledge, Psycho-social, Socio economic status, role-model and their interest in project. (P see the report). We took individual and group interview. We also had good interaction with honorable personnel, educationist and village community people as well. This helped us to gain essential support and respect from community people and lead us to the decision that the y-café project can be established in both the VDCs. |
