A successful training day

It started off very slow yesterday, everyone working by African time and turning up about an hour later than when it was going to start! In the end we had 40 people which was great, the training was brilliant, the doctors and nurses did a very good job and communicated really well. It was really encouraging for us how knowledgeable people are already about medical issues and how willing they were to learn. People were so honest and open, talking very frankly about personal issues such as HIV/AIDS and how it has affected them.
We have had such a good response with the volunteers forms as well, people seem very willing to give their time and skills which is great!
I am off to Kampala this morning, I am traveling down with the doc team and then going to meet our new Mbale GAT team which will be very exciting. Tomorrow I tell them about Mbale and what their programme will be and then travel back up with them on Friday. All exciting stuff!

Journalism faculty part of blogging trend
Web logging is becoming an increasingly popular trend and University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee faculty members are a part of it, typing their ideas and commentary online.


What a nice blog! Thanks for putting it online.

You know, I have a blog on the subject "cad drafting"... please have a look at it when you have time. It presents cad drafting-related information in an unusual format.

In the meanwhile, keep up the great blogging!
