Based on the desire and love of children to discover what is going on around them in real life, and because they are the generation that will build the future, the Syrian Society for Social Development, implemented in cooperation with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, an educational activity entitled "My Future Profession". This activity was carried out within the summer club sessions at the Maskana Community Center in Aleppo countryside.
The session began with a theatrical presentation on the advantages of different professions, and then the children were divided into groups to identify the tools used in each profession separately. Then, a video was presented for children to choose the appropriate name for the profession mentioned in the video.
The session ended with dressing the children uniforms of a doctor, carpenter, fireman and cook, as the children learned the benefits of multi-professionalism in our lives.
The children expressed, in conclusion, their following thoughts:
“I want to become a pilot and visit all the countries of the world and get to know them.”
"I was hesitant and didn't know what I wanted to become when I grow up, but after this session I decided to become a firefighter in order to help people."
"I like to help my mom a lot in the kitchen. That’s why I got so happy when I dressed today as a chef."
"Everyone in life has their role. We should aim to take on multiple tasks so that we are able to help as
many people as possible.."
