Learning Network (LN)-day
Just in short:
Today it is LN-day. We have workshops and discussions about CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility), HIV/AIDS, Education, Energy and Finance.
The day started with a speech of former polish Prime Minister Lech Walesa. He was followed by someone from PriceWaterhouseCoopers who had very long but good speech. Unfortunately, since yesterday had been the SSGN-Party that seemed to have been pretty good many people got tired. But then the work-part of the LN-started.
I chose the Education-workshop. So far we had dialogues about the situation of the education systems in different countries. Before lunch we had been divided into several groups. Trainers of some companies are leading the groups. Mine is about ING and UNICEF. We discussed what ING can do that more of their partners get involved into social projects for heping children being educated.
It is interesting to see what opportunities we have to help people. It will go on in a couple of minutes but I don't know what comes next.
For two or three days since this heavy rain in the morning I got a cold. 'Therefore and because of the general overwhelming input of the sessions I get here as well as because of the discussions about Palestine it is jading just to be here. I really need some sleep - or better a lot of sleep...
My best regards and hugs
