Working on the project

After a few days of getting our systems back to normal and playing a little bit we put in a solid day of work today. We were able to meet with the 4 local women that worked on the CARE Community Based Reproductive Health Project (the project we are collecting data on and evaluating now). They were so knowledgeable about the project, the local community, and hospitals and were really able to help us understand the various layers that a project like this consists of. They also happened to be very warm and sweet people! We also brought some data and graphs along with us to talk to the women about the importance of having reliable data (some of the data collected from the project is inconsistent).

After our meeting at CARE Mwanza we went to dinner at the Domo Domo(?) Restaurant which sits on the edge of Lake Victoria. The tilapia was as good as advertised, especially in conjunction with a locally brewed beverage!
