my colleagues (June 2015)

We were sitting out by the empty hotel pool in the warm evening, planning the last day of the workshop, when I realized: The number of nationalities here is incredible. There had been so much going on since I arrived, with the meetings and the drive to Ghana and the workshop, that I hadn’t had a chance to reflect over it. But now I counted: Ghanaian, Burkinabe, French, British, South African, Spanish, American, Ugandan, Argentinian, Swedish. Ten nationalities divided between thirteen people. An international project team, to say the least.
