In the luggage carrier with an educational Mission<\/h3>\n

It is an idea that is more than admi\u00adra\u00adble. Every year, our instal\u00adla\u00adtion mana\u00adger J\u00f6rg Leh\u00admann and his wife, in col\u00adla\u00adbo\u00adra\u00adtion with local part\u00adners, sup\u00adport the school and edu\u00adca\u00adtio\u00adnal work in con\u00adnec\u00adtion with the estab\u00adlish\u00adment of muni\u00adci\u00adpal net\u00adworks and struc\u00adtures in Africa. For this pur\u00adpose they coll\u00adect school and tea\u00adching mate\u00adri\u00adals or, if neces\u00adsary, buy spe\u00adci\u00adfic books\/materials.<\/p>\n

They took the first step in 2017 by per\u00adso\u00adnally dis\u00adtri\u00adbu\u00adting a deli\u00advery of school and tea\u00adching mate\u00adri\u00adals tog\u00ade\u00adther with their local part\u00adners in the Kivu pro\u00advinc of the DR Congo und Uganda. \u00bbThe prac\u00adti\u00adcal expe\u00adri\u00adence obtai\u00adned from the imple\u00admen\u00adta\u00adtion of the pro\u00adject shows that it is pos\u00adsi\u00adble to sup\u00adport peo\u00adple in war- and con\u00adflict-affec\u00adted regi\u00adons in rebuil\u00adding a social society with few resour\u00adces,\u00ab Leh\u00admann proudly explains his social initiative.<\/p>\n

The idea for this pro\u00adject and for the foun\u00adda\u00adtion of the asso\u00adcia\u00adtion \u00bbHujambo Habari \u2011School Pro\u00adject East Africa\u00ab e.V. came to the Leh\u00admanns on their jour\u00adney through East Africa, inclu\u00adding the DR Congo, Uganda and Kenya, during which they were riding their bikes \u00bbby the way\u00adside\u00ab. \u00bbOn our jour\u00adney we visi\u00adted many schools and met peo\u00adple who want to make a change and a dif\u00adfe\u00adrence in their region. This is how the idea for our pro\u00adject was born: With our small asso\u00adcia\u00adtion, we would like to pro\u00advide local help per\u00adso\u00adnally and with the coope\u00adra\u00adtion of our local part\u00adners\u00ab, explains Lehmann.<\/p>\n

For a clo\u00adser look, here is a short tra\u00advel report from this year:<\/p>\n

First of all, many thanks to all of you for the sup\u00adport with the pro\u00adject. What we have achie\u00adved there was only pos\u00adsi\u00adble because of every one of you. <\/em><\/p>\n

The last week was again very impres\u00adsive. Since our last visit a lot has hap\u00adpened in the small town of Kal\u00adehe, in the ISTD Insti\u00adtute and in the com\u00admu\u00adni\u00adties. The schools and peo\u00adple are working tog\u00ade\u00adther with the other com\u00admu\u00adni\u00adties. This has mainly been made pos\u00adsi\u00adble by our spe\u00adcial fri\u00adend Ber\u00adtin. He orga\u00adni\u00adzed sewing schools for our visit and we also went to some schools with a small kind of trai\u00adning school for sewers and car\u00adpen\u00adters. Howe\u00adver, they live under very, very simple con\u00addi\u00adti\u00adons, if you have not seen this yours\u00adelf, you will hardly believe it.
\nThe peo\u00adple here often have not\u00adhing and live in gar\u00adbage. Child\u00adren enjoy the most simple things. The peo\u00adple have here a lot of joy of life through music. They have even com\u00adpo\u00adsed a song for us.
\nBy the little we have done here, the peo\u00adple were so gra\u00adteful that we left with almost more than we brought. They gave us a goat, a tur\u00adkey, a chi\u00adcken and a lot of joy of life.
\nOne of the big\u00adgest pro\u00adblems here are the many child\u00adren who are con\u00adstantly gro\u00adwing in num\u00adber. It is very dif\u00adfi\u00adcult to get to the peo\u00adple and con\u00advince them not to have so many children.
\nUwe has reco\u00adgni\u00adzed or obser\u00adved it: The ones who want to make a big change here are the women.
\nFor the future there are many ideas, dreams and work. 3 years ago we also had many dreams and some have alre\u00adady come true.
\nThe aim is to try to sup\u00adport Ber\u00adtin and his team in every way pos\u00adsi\u00adble in buil\u00adding up edu\u00adca\u00adtion. Among other things we want to try to print books in Bukavu. We would also like to sup\u00adport the work\u00adshops with sewing machi\u00adnes and toolsm and to train the tea\u00adchers and sup\u00adport them with their ideas for prac\u00adti\u00adcal edu\u00adca\u00adtio\u00adnal projects.<\/em><\/p>\n

Before we give you some impres\u00adsi\u00adons of the cur\u00adrent pro\u00adject, here are the pos\u00adsi\u00adbi\u00adli\u00adties of support.<\/p>\n
