- Notes
- Alex walyomu and chris went to this village to continue engaging the community members on constitution writing, among the issues discussed were election of leaders and their responsibilities, the sustainability of the community activities, the economic activities, how the profits will be shared among the community members, how capital to start economic activities in the community will be raised , the responsilities of members towards implimenting the community committee proposals and the roles of economic activity committee. The meeting was successful because community members gave their views as alex and chris were guiding them however the most interesting part of the meeting was when mr isaac musenze a blind teacher by proffesion who pledged to translate the constitution to local laguage for everyone to understand it, as he was translating it everyone was very attentive and willing to learn more, Alex discussed about the need to start thinking big and identify great opportunities, he encouragedbthe community members to use the available market for food to venture into farming. Chris will continue with lessons on constitution wriying next week on 22/09/2021.
