Already since some years we are busy to discuss about what is really a good training program in Sangha. Now we have begun with much enthusiasm, after many discussions on the practical education where professional training will be put into the center. A curriculum with construction, water and sanitation, agriculture and so more. But how will this look like?

The last trip has made me completely happy. Not only in Sangha, in Bandiagara, nor in Mopti, but also at the highest organism in the sector education in Bamako have I been received with open arms.

A new principle in education has been introduced and it is geared towards that new principle that we are going to build a first school in Sangha. Very seldom I have met a civil servant who was so enthusiastic, who knows everything about constructions with stones of compressed earth, who contemplates and who has a vision on the question how one could deliver the opportunity to the youth to learn a profession locally. He could even show me a scheme with the position and the opportunities for the new educational set up. The fact that the school-building will be constructed was a surprise for him. He assured me not to worry as far as a director, teachers and his full support are concerned. In short, this meeting was a feast and it will inspire us to go ahead on the chosen road.
