3 self-funded volunteers. 4 possible NGO partners. Flights booked. Zambia is go!!!

The rough plan is as follows:

4 May:
I fly in to Livingstone, Zambia on Monday 4 May. Spend a week meeting NGO possible partners and finalising which one we are going to start working with. Plus try to meet some Zambian journalists and anyone else useful/interesting.

10 May:
Volunteers Adam (journalist) and Nerys (TV producer) join me in Livingstone.

11 May:
Set off to meet the community we hope to help with our new NGO partner. Spend just under two working weeks listening to their stories and sharing them with you on twitter and our blog as often as the Internet connection allows. Answer as many of your questions as possible. Plus upload the exact costs of the first school!

13 May:
Volunteer Brenda (photographer) joins us from South Africa.

22 May:
Fly to South Africa. I’ll be staying in Pritoria until 26 May (evening flight). If you are a journalist and want to set up an interview then please contact me at press at learnasone dot org.
