Here, you can see Super-Riffat explaining the social organisations (VDCs and MOG) in one of his projects (n.b., he is working in the livestock project but also in the Improving Women Status one). Khalid also explained how he has been promoting farmers organisations to implement the activities of his project.
And then.... we had the typical 'fatur' (Sudanese breakfast) in the office... This compensates somehow for the 50C temp, the late nights working and the loneliness of the hotel room... ahh, and most important, the lack of beer! (man! how much I miss a good pint of lagger!). The guy in white is Super-Khalid.
Shibby's visa to Peru: A more or less successful call to the Consulate in Cairo. It seems that they have received a letter from the Ministry in Peru advocating for Shibby's case and apparently he will get the visa. However, the issue now is time (to get the Dutch visa). The consul was not in the office today but I will call him tomorrow to see what solutions he can give us to get his visa ASAP and then proceed with the Dutch one. (Keep on visualising!).
Que hubo guevon?
ReplyDeleteThis is a very innovative idea.
It certainly increases your visibility!
Amazing that you have time / good access to internet.
Can't promise to read it every day, but I will be very interested to see the responses. I guess from your perspective it is a good incentive to write up notes daily.

Hi Lucho.
ReplyDeletePlease pass my greetings to Shibby, Rifaat and all the rest of the team there.
You could do me a huge favour while you're there, which is to check what's happening with Yasir's visa for Peru too...
Sounds v v hot. Hope you're not melting.
Cheers
