Link Community Development was asked to present the key note case study at the SNNPRS Regional GO-NGO Education Conference on 24th and 25th December 2010. We partnered the Regional Education Bureau to host the conference, and as a result all key education stakeholders in the region were issued with t-shirts and caps bearing the Link logo alongside the SNNPRS regional government and the education bureau logos.
Our presentation was really well received. Link staff took a minimal role, just giving an overview of our organisation and approach. Representatives of our woreda and school stakeholders then presented about the activities and impact of our support to the School Improvement Programme.
During the discussion that followed, the Wolaita Zone Head of Education, Ato Woisha, gave an unreserved endorsement of Link’s work and credited us with significant educational improvements in our target woredas. He said “the zone education bureau is making a huge effort to replicate the work of Link in other woredas of the zone".
