How to achieve that in 1% of the homes in refugee camps Nakivale and Kakuma, , 338,000 people, say 33,800 homes, 338 bookcorners... yesterday. Therein lies a challenge please ... not unsolvable by any means

Interestingly, from the flohmakrt yesterday, there lies a challenge in schools in Austria, NÖ, also. How to get more English books into schools and this more English learning ... again , not unsolvable

Beyond this, how to get 10 appropriate books to the home of every under 5 year old in those refugee camps... lets say 90,000 kids, 900,000 books please

Ideas meet Money - A Tiroler Heim in Yaounde ?

Dear friends,

When I was in my final year at University, 1984, I formed a dream 

of running student accommodation in the UK, based on providing 

quality accommodation and an all in package of roof , food, social life

  and space to study at a price equivalent or better to the next best alternative.

For some time now this has focussed on creating a 50m2 room with 25m2 

of wife enabled art gallery with 12 seats for learning, and 12 bunk beds 

and kitchen in the rear. ( We are very close to creating this at my home 

in Happy HIetzing ) . The intention in somewhere like the Nairobi Slums, 

Freetown, or Kakuma Refugee Camp would be to provide a safe haven 

for street kids ( Under the branding The Learning Street ) 

Currently this also includes an intention to build or create one or more  

"Tiroler Heim" in Africa, 

subtly promoting Tirol, my second favourite brand in the world. 

Recent activity has led to a focus on Cameroon, where we have been 

invited to submit social projects to a Lions Den type of event. This would 

be  a TV broadcast where  "ideas meet money" - similar to 

"First Tuesday Vienna" a concept which I brought to Vienna, 

and led from 1999-2001. In order to progress this from Vienna 

we are thinking to form a project team of 12 to flesh out the concept 

and run a pilot project, from a building already identified in Cameroon. 

Perhaps one or more of your residents would be interested to explore this further 

much love

nigel
