I am terribly behind on updating this because we haven't had access to fast enough internet for a few weeks. (It usually takes about 2 hours to upload a few pictures...)
This is a women's group we visited who live in a slummier area of Tororo. They are focused on developing their small businesses through microloans, and on adult literacy.
The group meets under this giant tree for their daily lessons. They have been working on vowel sounds and have also learned to write their name.
A woman showing off her produce kiosk. Many women chose to expand their selection of produce with the microloans; others added another venture like charcoal-making to their business.
Will's other nemesis: the "guppies"
Someone in the village was in the process of make "home brew," i.e. moonshine, which is actually kind of fascinating despite its disastrous effects. The black barrel is full of the alcoholic mixture which is being boiled, and the brown tub cools it off. If they make it improperly, it turns into poison.
Oh and the building in the background is an elementary school.
