MODULE ACTIVITY 1
1. Watch the documentary: “After the storm: Building Pope Francis Village”
2. If you are the community organizer or facilitator, what are the challenges that you might

A. The community might not believe in my capabilities.
- Organizing can be very hard especially if you came from somewhere far and a lot of people

C. Leaders/ staffs must have courage

must show strong personality as to give hope to people that everything will eventually be okay.
Having a high morale while seeing those people who endured hardship can be difficult so
everyone must be physically and mentally prepared.

rebuilding the community. No one is rich or poor when difficulties strike, everyone should be as
humane as possible in order to bounce back at their feet.
