Summary of project status and achievements:
Journal staff met with PM Sara on 14 November and received copies of the 27th and final edition. From 16 November through 20 November, they distributed 258 French copies and 154 Swahili copies of the Journal to the Mwange community.
Journal staff also began the new model for the project. They set up a blackboard near the market and wrote daily news updates on it, along the lines of what we have been told is done in Moba Kirungu. This has been successful, and the staff asked if they could receive materials to continue after FORGE leaves. The COC gave them the remaining budget for the project and they bought chalk, paper and pens, providing a receipt to the COC.
Indicators and Statistics:
Included in the spreadsheet.
Future goals:
The staff expressed enthusiasm about continuing to write daily new updates on the blackboard until the camp ceases to exist or they repatriate.
Substantial problems or issues:
None.
Wishes or request:
None.
Budget status:
Expense monitor to follow.
