In March 2009 a
contract was signed between the Blue Cross Norway (BCN), the Thaba-Bosiu
Centre (TBC) and ICDP with the aim of developing ICDP in Lesotho.
The first ICDP
training workshop was carried out in Maseru, at the beginning of July
2009. There were 25 participants from 14 different organizations. They
expressed great interest, worked hard asking relevant questions and
suggested many ways of implementing ICDP in their work and also personal
family life with children. They told moving stories about their
relationships, especially to their fathers, who as mine workers had
little time to spend with their own children.
The second work-shop took place in Maseru, Lesotho, from the 15-18th of
March 2010 and it was attended by 19 persons of which 12 reported about
their field-work. There will be a short workshop in July 2010, then it
will also be possible for the persons who did not get a promotion
diploma to present their field-work.An important task for Blue Cross is
to determine how to include the alcohol and drug issue into the
ICDP/Blue Cross program. So in this work-shop there was a discussion on
how to include the topic of alcohol within the frame of the ICDP
program. The participants were quite active and had a positive attitude
in trying to bridge this.
The training will continue.
