Our initial assignment was to work with the e-Health initiative in Rwanda. After communicating with our contact there, it became evident that time and communication would be an issue. After dicussing our options with our professors at Tulane, we decided that a change of project would be most appropriate.
Our next partnership with the Family Health International (FHI), was relatively short-lived. We were unable to successfully make contact with a project administrator and had to discontinue our affiliation with FHI. We again discussed our options with our professors, and chose to begin work with Kamali Fulgence, a journalist and radio personality in Rwanda.
Unfortunately, our current project with Kamali is likely to end. We would very much like to continue working with Kamali and her organizations, but we sincerely feel that our contributions to her projects would be minimal and would not satisfy our requirements for our course project. We wish her the best of luck.
We are currently discussing the possibility of working with The Fund in Uganda. We have been meeting with our newest professor, Dr. Scialfa, and will post more information as it comes in. For any questions, or for a more detailed description of our project history, please see our e-mail records, which are located in the right hand navigation bar of our blog.
Although we have encountered great difficulties in securing a partner organization for the course project, we have all managed to maintain a positive attitude and look forward to continuing our work within this course.
