| As
a movement, Bangladesh YMCA has been emphasizing to participate in the
cultural life of people and foster interaction between and amongst
cultures towards a harmonious global community. Our endeavor is to come up
with such programs that mobilize youths as proactive agents of social
transformation. In this perspective, the Bangladesh YMCA Cultural Group
comprised of 20 members gathered for a Cultural Program in India
hosted by the Ranchi YMCA from 12 – 19th April 2005 with the
generous sponsorship of the Norwegian YWCA-YMCA.
In
Ranchi, Bangladesh YMCA Cultural Group performed a Cultural Soiree with
various folk cultural components of the country. The historical struggle
of people, which leads to the independence, was depicted through a series
of chorus and solo songs accompanied by folk dances. In addition to that,
there was a separate component of a cultural presentation of the Garo
Tribal Community, with Garo songs and traditional dances. The Ranchi group
also performed a similar presentation. There were three big shows that
fascinated around thousand of people of Ranchi in each show and got a worthy
local media coverage. The group had a very meaningful interactions with
the youth group of Ranchi on global challenges of youths and
emphasized on
inter movement co-operation & sharing of resources in this regard.
Moreover, the group visited the existing programs of Ranchi YMCA.
