Hello from Moundou ! Two days ago, an important informational meeting took place in Belaba, where the group we are partnering with met us and sat through preliminary training. A total of 50 people came, either part of the group, or simply as curious people. I spoke in French while Kevin translated in Gambaï. The meeting was very positive, with lots of questions asked. We prepared tea the traditional way, using rice straw charcoal made in Doba back in April. The women, who know better than anyone how charcoal is supposed to burn, gave their unanimous approval.

Our trip to Baibokoum was postponed due to various delays in the fabrication of the necessary equipment for the fabrication of charcoal, but especially because Moundou hasn´t had gasoline in over three weeks. It was therefore impossible for us to cover the 150 mile trip from Moundou to Baibokoum and back. Fuel was finally brought into Moundou yesterday.
