Greetings all,

Project Teach/Konbit Pwof is offering its annual professional development
seminar for Haitian teachers.  This year's seminar will take place in
Haiti’s northwest corner, Port-de-Paix, July 1-16, 2005.

The seminar, attended by teachers who may never have had any teacher
training, covers methodology for delivering all core subjects at various
grade levels, with a strong emphasis on respecting and protecting
children’s rights and the importance of a teacher’s role in society.

A group of dedicated teachers and school administrators from Europe and
across North America come together to form a volunteer team to deliver the
seminar.  We are looking for others to join with us and help.  In
particular, we need specialists in French Language Arts, Writing, Math,
Social Studies (all levels), conflict resolution, and kindergarten.

Help make a difference.  Visit www.projectteachhaiti.org for more
information.


Best,
Ingegerd Nissen Petersen
