By George Abang Tawoh | General Commissioner/CEO
APWCR General Commissioner/CEO Mr. George Abang Tawoh who was offered a place and awarded full scholarship to attend the first ever London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), Progamme for African Leadership (PFAL) that took place from the 17th March through the 4th April 2012 at LSE.
The programme which was very enriching that brought in brave proffessors from this great university,a wide range of experience African young Leaders covering the public and private sectors, civil society and the media, increased the leadership skills of APWCR CEO in a global perspective and more focus in the African Continent.
As any aspiring leader who will never want to misused any given opportunity, APWCR CEO uses this programme to shoot three birds; held many meetings with some advisory board members of APWCR in UK, Sarah Williams and Jacob Hipps and more importantly the successfully meeting we held in a coffee snack around Tavistock Square by 10:50am with this two distinquish staff of Global Giving Zdravka M. Sen and Jenni Tomlin about some of the difficulties APWCR has in fund raising for our project Grow plantains and support human rights in Cameroon and the handicappness APWCR has in internet accessibility.
The meeting ended by 11.00am same 5th April 2012 were Jenni and Zdravka assisted me with the backs that I was carrying after checking out in the LSE accomondation in Passfield Hall to Auston Station to Highbury Centre were I had to be there, three more days to enable me catch my return flight to Cameroon on the 8th April which I did and am now pulling on well with my work in APWCR in Limbe - Cameroon.
On our plantains project, APWCR volunteers are still suffering in transporting harvested plantains on their heads and backs. We are still appealing for our donors to donate to this our project to enable us purchase a 4x4 vehicle as you can see in the photos attached on how we are still struggling even at this twenty first century in carrying heavy load like plantains on our heads and backs, this continuous strainous activity has scared most of our female volunteers.
What can we do other than really on your contribution to enable us overcome this difficulties in purchasing this vehicle.
Sincerely,
