Nope still in Nicaragua fighting the good fight! It’s just the things that I once found fascinating
(pigs on back of bicycles, yet another 90 degree day, etc.) have become
mundane. Which is good I guess because
that means that I’m acclimated to the third world way of life. Stay tuned for when I return to the USA for
the first time in 9 months...
Last weekend we had a training celebrating 17 months in
country, woohoo! It was splendid and
great to see everyone.
News on a new project: I’ve started advising a women's rights organization! I met with them last week and learned that
they provide services for victims of domestic violence such as consoling and legal
help. I also found out that they have
lost all of their funding. So, we
decided to work on a strategic plan that we can distribute to NGOs in hopes of
finding some sponsors (do any of you know Latin American women-focused
not-for-profits?). Tomorrow we are
hopefully going to answer the following:
Vision: how do we want
to see the world?
Mission: what are we going to do to change it?
Objectives: goals that we want to accomplish.
Tasks: the steps that we’ll take
Resources: what do we already have to help us?
Necessities: what do we need to be successful?
Wish me luck!
