Wakilare Debo being shown at School of International Service: American University and CHF International

Our documentary, "Wakilare Debo: Hardworking Woman" will be used in the curriculum this Fall at American University's School of International Service (SIS) and at Johns Hopkins, School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) in two different micro finance courses. We are thrilled of course that this film that we made in Senegal in 2003 is becoming so useful in seeing women's activities within the village banking methodology.

Elissa McCarter and Thierry van Bastelaer are both colleagues of my brother Tim Nourse, so it will be interesting to hear how it goes and how the students react to the film. Now we are following up with our contacts in this small town of Kolda to hear the news about how the four women's families are doing over 7 years later.

You can watch it on the small screen here.....http://content.io/work/film/film.html
