BACKGROUND FOR THE FACILITATOR
The purpose of today's activities was that the mother and her child get to spend time together, so that they can get to know each
other better and so that they can find ways to strengthen their relationship when they are outside of the project. In addition, they
are given an opportunity to start practicing their skills they have learnt from the previous sessions, for example: decision-making,
problem-solving, asking for help and interpersonal skills.
