Just to keep you updated, in the next week I will be doing a few interesting things:
1. Teaching a two day midwifery course to the Village Health Workers. Many of them deliver babies with no training at all and speak only Lugandan.
2. Attending a friends' traditional African wedding in a Gomez.
3. Teaching an English class to members of the Women's Empowerment Group focusing on issues of womanhood, health and the environment.
4. Organzing a youth leadership camp for 150 students.
5. Coaching the girls netball team and running a weekly boot camp.
6. Presenting a workshop for young women on puberty, sexuality, self confidence and leadership.
7. Writing proposals to work collaboratively with nurses at the Uganda Rural Fund.
8. Organzing a interclass competition and grade awarding ceremony for students as they recieve their semester one grades. Nothing is more important than encouraging youth to excel in school.
Also, I love my mother, father, friends and boyfriend David, who I am very proud of and is setting off to Norway for a science conference (good luck!)
