Learning from African Viewpoints

By David Craig

I have greatly appreciated this training as it was so wholistic. I love it!...I liked training with African colleagues as a foreigner so I can learn more about where I live and work. Thank you for all your work, Jonny and Anthony.

I want to appreciate these lessons that we have been learning. I think as a foreigner in Africa, I have really appreciated hearing the African viewpoints which has really been so enriching to me. I was aware of a lot of the material previously, the Helping Without Hurting in Africa material, and so it wasn't all new to me, but I really love the things being taught through the Chalmers Center. I really appreciate it and I think it is very worthwhile and so I think it needs to be disseminated more. I want to help my colleagues, for instance, my missionary colleagues, and my colleagues in the locally initiated sponsorship program I am working with here (in Uganda). I think it is very crucial to work through these issues. So I will be definitely pushing that in my team and asking questions as much as possible, and try to teach others as I have been over the years. I think if they could do this training themselves, that would be excellent
