London Meetings

It was a pleasure to spend time with Les Stratton UK Coordinator of ASP Net. The programme will go from strength to strength under his leadership.  

The National Commission was extremely informative and demonstrated the commitment that many have to the development of UNESCO principles inside the United Kingdom. Particularly of interest was the Ambassador's explanation on grant aid offered to countries in the developing world and what control the sponsor has over those finances. There were many issues for discussion on the agenda including reports from the various committees.  

The day finished with a short meeting with Charity a delightful lady who wishes to help schools in Nigeria. Certain extenuating circumstances may hinder our involvement but we will be able to assist a little.
