Karamoja

Mountains of the Moon University has just been awarded the contract by the Irish Embassy / Development Cooperation Ireland to supply two three week training courses for Teachers and Education Administration Staff in Karamojo in Eastern Uganda. Currently there are serious security anxieties as the local tribesmen are well armed with AK47s and appear to be extending their professional life of cattle raiding to anything that moves which might have a tradable value, clothes, vehicles etc. often with tragic results for those who happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

For bird watchers how about this for a rear view of a Yellow Billed Stork, Granny's best lace shawl.
