I have just heard the most wonderful news from Neema Mgana (ARYI, GYCA, International Council for Global Initiatives, ISCA), and wanted to pass this along to a number of forums, so that we can all congratulate her and take pride in her considerable achievements and the honor she has received. BRAVO and huge hurrahs, Neema! This nomination and recognition could not go to a more committed activist or to a better person.

QUI SOMMES-NOUS? PRESENTATION DE L’INSTITUT

POLE a été le nom choisi afin de conserver tout son sens à l’Institut. En effet, POLE est un mot Swahili (langue commune du Kivu) qui est utilisé pour consoler une personne qui a été éprouvée ou affligée. Toutefois, ce mot contient aussi un sens dynamique visant à fournir de l’énergie à la personne éprouvée afin qu’elle sorte vite de sa peine et qu’elle améliore sa situation. La traduction la plus simpliste de ce mot pourrait être « désolé » et  » tu y arriveras.

FairTradeNet Association

(Their site exists also in other international languages).

FairTradeNet is the only non-profit online service procurement organization that distinguishes committed, high quality freelance workers from those who ‘just want to get the job done’.

Our freelancers have been subjected to stringent tests of credibility, integrity, motivation and professionalism, to ensure that their clients receive a service that is fair and worth every cent.

Unlike other procurement organizations, FairTradeNet does not force providers to lower prices as this only induces freelancers to cut corners and deliver substandard jobs – a situation no quality-conscious client can accept.
