African OS Facilitators

[Michael M Pannwitz]

Dear Larry,
take a look at the worldmap for facilitators residing there...for South 
Africa you get two, Marc Steinlein collaborated with Michael jr. and Mia 
Konstantinidou and Valerie Morris has been in South Africa a long 
time...I dont know whether they are "African OS facilitators".

There are other countries in Africa, very few, with a few os-folks.

Yaari Pannwitz and Dominik Ringler conducted a full blown os training in 
Uganda last year for folks from Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania plus some 
European countries (Poland, etc.) and followed up with Learning 
Exchanges in Uganda and Tanzania a few months later...and are planning 
other stuff in Africa (EU-supported)(I am pretty sure they are not 
African OS facilitators but who knows how they see that).

You can also go to the search function via the Menu on the world map and 
enter for instance Uganda...that gives you the names of all the folks 
who have worked there (its 6 of them)and that have their contact data in 
the map.
Entering South Africa even gives you 15 folks that have worked there 
with os (just 2 resident folks)...so there is a rich variety of 
experience out there.

Your request at the end of your mail "...who are really good and 
experienced." raises an interesting question: Are we ready to name those 
among us who are really good and experienced? I am ready to tell you 
that I consider myself really good and experienced but I am not sure 
that you will find many people among us that will readily say that of 
themselves let alone of me.
Have a great weekend
