Back to Gambia

We are heading back to Gambia, project manager Janne Lepola, ICT-teacher Jukka Ylipiha and Master trainer -program trainer Annu Jokela-Ylipiha. To be honest, things didn't go as we expected during the fall. That was not a surprise really. Working only through remote connections is challenging. The electricity problems and unstable internet connections caused most of the trouble. Along with the technical problems, the motivation also waned.

We decided to change tactics. In The Gambia, sociality and community are important values, so we decided to invest in face-to-face teaching. The rest of the pedagogical part will be implemented as an effective four-day course. The course is supposed to take place in Future Starts Now Gambia -school in Serekunda. We look forward to seeing how these new old ways will help us to get ahead!
