Ellen Sponsors Deaf Student in South Africa | Liberian Observer
The learning atmosphere in post-war Liberia is not restricted to a particular class of people, as such, a deaf Liberian student, Charles Saypahn, has returned to the Country with a certificate of achievement in project management from the International Capacity Development Institute in Edenvale, Johannesburg, South Africa.
Mr. Saypahn, executive director of the Deaf Agricultural/ Development Farm Project, left Liberia for South Africa in December, 2010.
He underwent advanced training in project identification, formulation, design, organization, procurement, monitoring and evaluation.
He was sponsored by President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf to study in that country. Mr. Saypahn walked into the offices of the Daily Observer, On McDonald Street in Monrovia shortly upon his return.
Mr. Saypahn expressed gratitude to President Sirleaf for sponsorship that enabled him to clearly understand, among other things, the nitigrity of project development and management.
Mr. Saypahn added that he will apply what he had learned from the training to help improve the lives of the deaf community in Liberia through the implementation of the Agricultural project.
This training, he added, is in line with the implementation of Government’s Poverty Reduction Strategy (PRS).
Mr. Saypahn however, expressed his desire to meet with president Sirleaf for formal briefing as it related to the learning opportunity accorded him abroad.
I read Ellen Johnson Sirleaf's book. Very interesting.
