Learning from Carole

Carole runs Project Peru in London. It would be really valuable to meet her and learn from her experience. How did she started this project? How does she get the contributions? She could be a role model? Why a charity? Pros and cons of constituing a charity.

Paul's contributions

Create two markets, the paying market and the not paying market in order to create a self-funding organisation at the end.

To rent a place one day a week in order to get things cheaper.

Language School

To give opportunities to the popular lower classes so they can have access to more opportunities worldwide.

This can be a UK charity so it can be administered from the UK.

To send language teachers on a volunteer basis to Peru, for a period or one year or six months.

They can paid a contribution in order to sort out arrangements such as accomodation and food.

It may be possible to ask for subsidies from large organisations in order to administer this project.

Start of a conversation

Rossana,
I have put some information up about the Taos certificate for all of the students on the module. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
I have also been thinking about our conversation in the seminar earlier this week. If you are interested in using social constructionist ideas in some way in the future I would value the opportunity to help you with that. I realise that you are extremely busy at the moment but when you get time try drawing up a document that details your strengths/weaknesses and ambitions for the future. Try outlining all of the possibilties that you have for the future and email it to me. Perhaps an email conversation will help to shape some of the ideas you have.
Goodbye for now
Tina
