Many at the UN became inspired and came up with additional ideas after the presentation.
Children and young people from Dandora participated in the planning of the Children’s Meeting Place.
THE PARTY ON FEBRUARY 23, 2020
For children in Dandora, the highlight of the year is THE BIG PARTY! This year the party took place at the Children’s Garden of the National Museums of Kenya. The night before someone called out: – The balloon blower is gone!!! No problem – all 23 Swedes participating in the Study-tour joined and had fun!
DJ kom i god tid med stor musikanläggning. Härlig musik välkomnade barnen när dom strömmade ut ur bussarna.
Plötsligt var vi 250 personer – FESTEN var igång!
The party includes a lot of food, soft drinks, sweets, cakes, music, dance, games and gifts that Farsta Elementary School collect and donate!
The book about Dandora Dumpsite
Fotograf Thord Nilsson hade med sig boken ”Dandora – välsignelse eller förbannelse?” till soptippen. Stor glädje när dom som finns med i boken såg sig själva. Thord följde upp hur det gått sen han var där senast – alla var inte kvar i livet.
Hembesök hos barnen som varit på turné i Sverige med föreställningen My Life är en viktig del i studieresan. Vi samtalar om akuta problem, skolavgifter och hur fler barn kan få möjlighet att börja skolan.
Förberedelser för UNEP 50-Årsjubileum December 2019
The theme for the next Study Tour to Kenya will be The Four Elements in cooperation with National Museums of Kenya (NMK). We have long time cooperation with NMK – a strong and firm hand to hold on to! We will gather the two last weeks of February 2020. We invite architects, stone masons, artists/sculptures (who work in materials like glass, metal, clay, mosaics and all kind of recycled things), engineers and others who feel the call to join the planning process.
