Aline in Ghana: malaria bites
http://alineinghana.blogspot.com/2009/07/malaria-bites.html
Thursday, July 16, 2009. And so do the damn mosquitoes that gave me the parasite! Nevertheless, I went to the hospital the next morning feeling even more ridiculous about being there because by that point the fever had gone and all I had was a slight headache. However, it’s a really good thing I went because I ended up being diagnosed with severe malaria! Posted by Aline Bennett. August 1, 2009 at 7:16 AM. Do most people got for the $10/year plan? Are you feeling better now? August 11, 2009 at 1:30 PM.

Growing Perspectives: August 2009
http://growingperspectives.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Stories of life and reflections on change from Zambia '09. Wednesday, August 19, 2009. It feels as though it is four and half minutes to midnight on New Year’s Eve. Last minute conflicts, regrets over the year's happenings, bouts of laughter, reflections on circumstances, and hurried last minute preparations to welcome the New Year accompany the last breaths and struggled mutterings of the old one. Friday, August 14, 2009. Febrile Chills - Sleepless Nights - Morning brings a lucid, cruel, cruel, reality.

Growing Perspectives: September 2009
http://growingperspectives.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Stories of life and reflections on change from Zambia '09. Sunday, September 20, 2009. So perhaps the canvas brought to Zambia is finished - no more will the child's call of "musungu! What can be done to create it? The return to Canada? Is there something there? Saturday, September 5, 2009. The sun too shines in Calgary. Why will the child born in Calgary have far greater opportunity than the one born in Ndola? Internal roadblocks to change. As difficult as it is for an organization to achieve project su...

Growing Perspectives: June 2009
http://growingperspectives.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Stories of life and reflections on change from Zambia '09. Tuesday, June 30, 2009. I took this one in Mapalo. I think it is a neat picture. Not an expert photograph like something Ian or Tony can create, but I like the way the shadow dances with the wall. Two to tango. A little music for a change; Pat Metheny's oasis. Monday, June 29, 2009. Sheep in wolf's clothing. So I really had to force myself to write this post, apologies in advance if it feels laboured. Woes of the "field worker". Interview "struct...

The Adventures Of EWB And Michael Bosompra In Ghana. Michael K. Bosompra in Ghana. July 17, 2009. Field Staff For A Day… Or Maybe 4! So I was given a pretty cool opportunity the other day. A friend of mine who works for the Environmental Health Department in the Zabzugu/Tatale District Assembly was preparing to go out and gather data from various communities (villages) in the southern part of the district and was willing to take me along with him! Now that all the background information is out of the way...

The Adventures Of EWB And Michael Bosompra In Ghana. Michael K. Bosompra in Ghana. May 23, 2009. Well actually I’ve been here for 1 night and 2 days) but regardless I figured it was the perfect time for first reactions. My first reactions were pretty good. Having spent the previous day in Saboba (Shamir’s district) I was coming in with some sort of image of what Zabzugu might look like; and let me tell you Zabzugu did not disappoint! A couple pictures I took while biking through the downtown area]. Imagi...

First Trip Out To The Field | The Adventures Of EWB And Michael Bosompra In Ghana

The Adventures Of EWB And Michael Bosompra In Ghana. Michael K. Bosompra in Ghana. June 9, 2009. First Trip Out To The Field. Today was one of my best days at work so far. I got to go out with the water and sanitation team and one of their donors to see a community led total sanitation (CLTS) project. The community we were going out to was about 1.5 hours away so we piled into the big white SUV (the epitome of development vehicles) and made our way out there. The pics on the left are the types of latrine...

Host Family?… | The Adventures Of EWB And Michael Bosompra In Ghana
https://ewbnmkb.wordpress.com/2009/05/23/host-family-3
The Adventures Of EWB And Michael Bosompra In Ghana. Michael K. Bosompra in Ghana. May 23, 2009. As I sit here Wednesday evening reflecting on my first days in Zabzugu a few things strike me. The first thing is related to accommodation. When I was in Toronto it was pretty easy to sit around and say that I could handle the rural life. But when I first arrived in Zabzugu let me tell you I was straight up nervous! This morning my friend Kabona came to pick me up and take me to his home. This is Kabona’s co...
