2. The game “changing chair” is played exactly the same as at the low level, only the moderator can increase the emotional load of the question depending on the group she/he works with. For a group of women from rural areas for whom it is desired to increase the degree of participation in civic life, the following questions could be asked:

  • Who wants to participate voluntarily in community activities?
  • Who wants to volunteer in programs with seniors?
  • Who doesn't want to volunteer in programs with children?

3. We take as an example the exercise for the development of the entrepreneurial spirit of women living in rural areas.Exercise is played exactly as at the low and medium level but there are also questions of high emotional intensity:

  • Who has a family member who has gone to work abroad?
  • Who suffers that this person in the family is away from home?
  • Who fails to cover the monthly expenses of the house from the income that enters the house?
  • Who can't afford to go out with friends to a restaurant once a month?
