Hi my name is Pam Young and I have a humanitarian programme based in Mali West Africa..

I have worked there for the past 9 years in the area of development.. around 5 years ago I was able to build a small learning centre..so that the youth and women could come uand use its facilites.. its very basic but we are able to teach computor literacy to the youth and sewing clsses to the women. We also have many projects planned for the future and this past year recieved 2 solar cookers one has been set up in the village of Gidgumaboughou whilst the other is based in the learning centre and I have been doing some simple experiments with it.. ready for october when the rains have finished and can encourage more women to learn how to make use of solar and its energy.. saving them theirs.. wasting time collecting wood and conserving the environment..

If there is any one out there who who like to come over to Mali and share their skills we would love to have you on board..we will be driving overland from >Spain mid september 09.. feel free to contact us ..our website is [[www.villageventures.info[[

look forward to hearing from you

Regards Pam Young
