Sifat Islam

I am a recent graduate from the University of Alberta with a background in Biology and Psychology and a strong passion for community involvement. I am a strong and driven leader who wants to make a meaningful impact for the Bengali youth here in Edmonton. I am goal oriented and will work hard to reach those goals.

Sunday Youth Bangla School

Sunday Youth Bangla School is designed to strengthen Bengali language skills, cultural identity and community engagement for youth in Edmonton. It is a chance for them to meet weekly with other children to do activities and events where they can learn and share their culture.

Voici les objectifs de développement durable associés à mon projet

    Les objectifs de développement durable de l’ONU

    Il est possible de catégoriser les projets à impact communautaire selon les objectifs de développement durable de l’ONU. These are the Sustainable Development Goals associated with my project.

      Le fonctionnement du projet

      From August to January, the project will develop and deliver structured Bangla language classes for youth. Students will build language skills through lessons, games, cultural activities and creative performances. Monthly milestones will celebrate progress, while parents involvement, volunteer recognition, feedback and an end-of-term ceremony will strengthen community engagement.

      Résumé de l'impact

      As a Bengali-Canadian youth who wants to push my community to success, The Bangla Sunday School is a resource for Bangladeshi youth to gain valuable skills towards their language, academics and stay connected to their culture.

      Résumé de la mission

      This project addresses the problem of youth being detached from their culture and having access to limited resources for tutoring and collaborating. They will benefit by building a closer bond with one another, gaining academic achievement and having stronger ties to their culture.

      Équipe du projet

      My team includes teachers to teach bangla, students of the school who learn bangla, volunteers that act as teachers or their helpers, parents of the students who help give us feedback, coordinators to run everything smoothly.
