Jolkona is a once in a lifetime opportunity.  Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity. I wish this could have lasted a little longer.  On this one month journey, I got to learn from the best trainers. I  also got to learn from the extremely talented participants. All together you all helped me learn and grow a lot.

Like our mentors say, we all are droplets (jolkona).. when we gather together we become an ocean.. this month-long training program has been a voyage for me.. my very first voyage. I shall forever be grateful to our amazing mentors and my fellow mates for making this journey so memorable..Thanks Jolkona for letting me sail with you

Jolkona has contributed to many of my firsts. My first time venturing out of my major, my first time thinking of a solution using an engineering perspective and also one of the first times working with so many wonderful and talented women at the same time! It may have been just a month but Jolkana’s contribution to my life has been enormous.

Jolkona has taught me, it’s never late to dream and also working for it whether it seems to be impossible to work on. I got myself into this program to find myself, what I am really passionate about and I guess I am learning the ways where and how to go ahead like little baby steps. Thanks to WaterAid and ESAB for letting me in Jolkona.

For the first time in my life, I stepped out of the box and participated in a training program completely different from my major. Throughout the entire program, I gained detailed insights about WASH challenges and our individual roles for overcoming them. Most importantly, we could learn how to ignite the flame of leadership within us.
