What would you change?


















These past two weeks have been busy for us M-27  volunteers in Moldova.  Our group is the 27th cadre of Peace Corps volunteers that have been in Moldova over the past 20 years.  And these past two weeks have been part of our training in language and program techniques.  Here's some of our group in Stauceni giving a group picture to our language teachers Diana and Rodica as we wrap up our Limba Romana sessions.  We have been having classes in one of the newest school buildings in Moldova.  It's the Ilie Fulga Scoala si Gradinita,  that's a primary school and kindergarten.   Last Friday we all went down to Chisinau to visit Stefan cel Mare Park because there was an NGO Fair taking place there.  It's there in the capital on the main boulevard,  Bulevardul Ștefan cel Mare.  The theme of the fair was Help Strenghten Civil Society.  There were over fifty Non-Governmental Organizations represented with information booths and volunteers to explain their contribution to strenghtening Moldova.  And there was a long list of things they were addressing with their work.  What would you change or "Tu ce ai schimba?"  let people write down their own ideas.  And there were many good ones.  It almost seemed like there was a rainbow appearing in the park fountain as a sign of peace and harmony.  Some clowns there were also sporting rainbow hair-dos.  This put us all in a postive mood and made us smile.
