Dear Colleagues, I follow with interest the marvellous initiatives undertaken by Kabissa and other organisations. However, I feel increasingly anxious that there is virtually nowhere that Portuguese-speaking African organisations can turn to for this kind of valuable support.
I do a lot of work in Angola and I feel the frustration of people there when the language isolation factor prevents them from fully participating in events in the region. I was wondering if Kabissa/ GKD would consider hosting a Training-of-Trainers Programme for the PALOP (Portuguese-Language African Countries: Angola, Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde Islands and Sao Tome & Principe). At the very least, what would be the possibility of slowly starting to put together the training kits and peripheral material necessary for training events or for self-learning? I look forward to hearing from you.
