I have through the years 1993 to 2003 been associated to a small project with people with muscular dystrophy in Zimbabwe. And in that connection, I have visited the country twice.

Through personal experiences from the development project, we will see and hear vivid stories from the beautiful country Zimbabwe in Southern Africa.
We will see big differences between life in the big city and the little in small villages in the bush.
There will be plenty of opportunity to see the magnificent countryside with the rich wildlife of Hwange National Park, and a look at the pouring waters from the Victoria Falls.

The speech will also show the difficulties people with disabilities face in Zimbabwe. And we will realize that the work for a disability policy, in many areas, is similar to what we work with in Denmark.

I will look into the considerations that we need to do when we want to help. I will tell about the things that have succeeded in the project and what could have been better.

If you want more information, have questions regarding the booking or just want to know what is possible, please contact me at the address below and let us talk about it.
