This is a central where they receive second hand clothes from Europe in big containers, they are sorting it and selling it in bales to local people. These local people are selling it again on the local markets in Luanda. This is a money generating project, and the surplus was used to run other projects in Angola, such as for example schools. I started as a teacher here at the traveling folk high school in South Sealand, Lindersvold, in June 1999. I find it challenging and demanding to be a teacher, and very interesting.
Every day there is something new.
I find it important to encourage people to work together, so that they can solve tasks and problems they have, together in a group. It is this that makes things running. It is important to get the students to take initiative themselves, to plan, to act, to lead, to organize, and in the end to see the result. This way we bring out the best from the people, and this makes them feel well about themselves. When I have been to Africa I have seen that there is a big need for help.
