We had a women's focus group yesterday which went really well. It’s really cool because Irene is in this group of women that meets once a month. They meet every month to talk about their lives and how to improve them. They each contribute a little money and they give it to one of the ladies to do with it whatever she wants. For example, use it to buy flour to make mandazi (bread) and sell it. Or buy a goat. It’s almost like a little microfinance group. A lot of the women are already small business owners. It was really rewarding to see Irene explain to them what we could talk about because she was telling them about everything we’d learned about business already.
vocab word of the day:
nina njaa - I'm hungry
