Last week I went along to see some US-funded projects in the south of the country...flew to Dolisie along with Al, IPHD (International Partners for Human Development )staff Christian, Kristina, and Roman, who are running the projects and Breton from our Embassy along with IPHD staff members. We travelled many kilometers on dry dusty roads enroute, visited the small town of Sibiti. We visited district Prefects, and a school where girls receive Embassy-funded scholarships, a sewing shop, market gardens in Thaiti; visited Mongo school where mosquito nets and supplies were donated, and where we saw one of the IPHD-run USDA-funded school lunch programs; and visited a village chief in Mouindi which was the last stop before our 5-hour ride back on a road being built by the Chinese, to the airport to catch the flight back to Brazzaville..
