For support in the opening process of the club, schools can select from the given options –

Requirements – Once you send us the intent form, we will create your school account on www.deshapnayen.org and intimate you. After that, the Desh Apnayen teacher and the students can register themselves to access and download the monthly activities. 

Process to be carried out by DA teacher

Step 1 1. Invite students from Grade 5th to 9th to participate through platform that you have been using for online communication with parents and students these days. 

2. Share the Desh Apnayen  ACTIZEN®Club document with student’s membership form link (Given above), for the students and parents to understand the Desh Apnayen ACTIZENS®Club and its benefits. 

3. Recommended club size/strength– 2 students per section per grade, with a total of 25 – 40 students. 

4. Schools can also form additional Desh Apnayen ACTIZENS® Clubs if the number of interested students exceeds 40. 

Step 21. Election is a part of club formation in Desh Apnayen and very important first step for students to understand Democracy and its functions. But for the time being, this step also can be skipped till the time schools start functioning on full swing.  

2. Once the schools reopen, you can conduct a formal process of election of DAAC office bearers. 

3. Announce the results and publish a list of DAAC office bearers on the school notice board or Desh Apnayen Wall and share with it Desh Apnayen too. 

4. Create a Record Book (physical) and handover to DAAC president to record the activities, minutes of the meeting and reports of events during the year. 

5. Handover Desh Apnayen badges to all the club members  

Investiture ceremony is another very important step in the club formation for students to understand the value of oath taking ceremony and to take ownership of their leadership positions in the club. But this process also can be implemented once the schools  reopen. Alternatively, if you would like to hold the ceremony online, write back to us and Desh Apnayen will support in online the investiture ceremony for the school.
