Goal: vocational training program

Our plan is to organise a vocational training program for young people of this region who have no job possibilities otherwise. The long-term goal is to build classrooms and eventually even dormitories to be able to make training available to young people from that region.

Training in Nsioni begins

The first five students are trained in agriculture and fish farming.

Building a well

To get anything done in this country, especially in the countryside, is nothing short of a miracle. It is truly admirable how resilient people in these areas, including Joseph, can be. As recommended by the well builder, 1500 bricks were made, burned and transported to the farm from a place 6 km outside of Nsioni. Fine sand from a river 5 km away, which filters the water in the well, was brought to the farm. The workers dug 7 meters deep. The well is 2 x 2 m wide.
