Another busy couple of days - time is going way to fast, not 'slowly by slowly' as Africans like to say!
Monday was another day full of teaching, with the last 2 Food Security Sites, Mugombwa and Kibilizi! Rachael and Sandra gave 9 talks in all, and did a fantastic job. The beneficiaries in each site were very eager to soak up all teaching. Rachael even quizzed the sites she taught at about last years material - it was well remembered. This picture shows the eagerness of 2 beneficiaries at the Mugombwa site - taking copious notes!!

Today was a training day for the Assistant Veterinary Technicians (AVI) who are a vital part of the Food Security Program. Each site has an AVI. These technicians are meant to help the veterinarian by seeing any beneficiaries who may have issues with their livestock, treat the cows, if they can, or, get the veterinarian if the issue is beyond their knowledge. The day went well. We discussed topics such as history taking, the physical exam, how to give injections, take blood and even how to castrate and dehorn a cow. The day ended with the presentation to the AVI's at the 4 new sites of a complete medical kit and a bicycle to aid in their work. The other 4 AVI's received their bikes and medical kits in the fall of last year. They were all very keen and ready to work.
These two pictures illustrate the generosity of Udder Project supporters in veterinary supplies that Viateur was very please to receive. Thank you to all those who donated all the veterinary medications and supplies. They are needed and will be well used.
