If we talked about the “IATSS” Forum, the very first thing which suddenly appears on our mind is the systematic structure. The previous week in our days, Gasshuku made us to bear the team sprit easily, start to build our strong friendship and ready to fully commit in the team based approach. Then, facilitation training gave us the valuable knowledge of the important of facilitation skill which is one of the components to achieve our common goal. Concerning with the seminar and lecturers, we gained the academic knowledge from international lesson learn. Also we had firsthand experience from the field studies. Then, we got the chance to learn how to settle up ourselves among the different culture, norms and tradition from the culture exchange activities and communication each other which is the big issue for the collaboration between the diversity. Moreover, group study can show the way of how to harmonize and combine wisely the competency of team member and how to find out together the proper way to attain the common goal. During our days, the most heart touching thing is our Friendship. How strong is it! Nobody can imagine it. Last but not least, I am sure to say that every single tough activity, we faced with, can support step by step improvement of our interpersonal skill and broaden our knowledge. That is why, I really impress about the IATSS Forum appropriate arranging system and fully loaded contribution. I can tell that IATSS Forum means a great deal to me and these 55 days is the most memorable moment of my life.
