Subject: Working With Somaliland Community


Hi,
I have been working very closely with the Leicester Somaliland Community and
have set up and run four weeks on two sites (using City Learning Centres) of
summer school activities. Work has included literacy work, web work and two
weeks of theatre workshops where the children have been encouraged to share
their feelings and attitudes to a number of issues, including  relating
stories from their lives. We have collected a large amount of audio, visual
and written material (in raw form at the moment).

I'd be keen to hear from any members that have worked with Somali
Communities with a view to setting up links between Leicester's community
and others. We would also be prepared to share material for any joint
project.

We're not sure how we will present the material yet and the community
themselves will be key in deciding how we move forward.

All that's best,
