May I add? A characteristic of a movement is that things happen and no particular person can be seen to be dominantly responsible. So the Constellation must be that way inclined, at the very least, because so many are responsible for the next steps…

When we got together 5 years ago we created a dream. We have realised and indeed exceeded some parts of that dream. But there is still much left we can do. I'm wondering, if we were to look back at the end of 2014 what is our dream today and what h…

Today, 7 December 2009, is a grey and rainy day in my part of the world. And the day risks to go by without further mentioning. But it is not that we have no reason to celebrate. Exactly 5 years ago on a day that was exactly as grey as today, eleven…

About Me:
I am working as the manager at the Constellations Core Facilitation Team in Chiang Mai. I am also a 40 year old mother of 4 - and enjoy the days where those worlds meet seemlessly.
My dream:
A Constellation of people and communities making this world a bright place to be. Starting from my own little stars at home.
My concern:
My concern is uh, that I cannot think of a concern now! (typing on a bright monday morning from Chiang Mai, my children all healthy and at school, a mailbox full of good messages on Competence spreading.... my greatest concern would be how I would act the day that all this wouldnot be there any more.... so lets all continue to strive for the dream and be ahead of the concerns :)
I'm proud of:
My friends in so many places of the world, all working towards the same goal - all in our own context and from our own strength.
What I think of AIDS Competence:
worthwhile to strive for!

Constellations first Lustrum : a purification ?

Today, 7 December 2009, is a grey and rainy day in my part of the world. And the day risks to go by without further mentioning. But it is not that we have no reason to celebrate. Exactly 5 years ago on a day that was exactly as grey as today, eleven people came together in a dark meeting room just outside Geneva. They lightened up that day with a vision of a Constellation of connected stars supporting each other in becoming AIDS Competent. They made that vision concrete with the foundation of th… Continue

It is all in the way you look at people


Probably the least inspiring place on beautiful Bali is Kuta Beach: Highly touristic with all side-effects as a deplorable result; a polluted beach, red burnt and drunken Aussies in a Karaoke Bar, prostitution, no room for authentic culture or nature – and the continued fear for anot… Continue

A new milestone in connecting virtually

Today is a special day. We are inviting coaches to our virtual platform that is linking people accross the globe around the issue of competence.
I am excited about this new milestone in connecting virtually with my good friends in all places in the world.

I remember so well my first 'AIDS' workshop, in Bulawayoo 1998. Thirty facilitators of local responses came together - and in the room was a clear sense of agreement on the importance of learning from these local responses. The need to stay co… Continue

Salut Marlou,
La lutte continue!
Je veux avoir votre aide pour partager avec les collègues anglophones, est-ce qu'il y a un moyen pour traduire les messages qui sont en anglais.

Salut SALT,
Je vous annonce que la petite BELLE FIE a été orientée depuis hier, au centre AMO CONGO, de N'djili Q/7 et bénéficiera de la prise en charge médicale de ce centre, ceci après la confirmation de test VIH qui a démontré la présence du virus dans son sang.Elle sera donc aujourd'hui à leur centre de kasa vubu pour passer au test déterminant la charge virale, un test CD4 et autres tests, et pourra commencer les ARV qu'après les résultats de ceux-ci.
Ce qui reste maintenant, c'est d'être près de la famille pour la motiver et soutenir du côté nutritionnel et autres, car, il a été demandé à la famille de bien assurer l'alimentation de Bellefie, chose un peu difficile pour la famille, mais sa grand mère a promis qu'elle fera tout malgré sa situation socio économique, et bien vous aussi, vous pouvez la soutenir...Vous, c'est tout celui qui se sent disposer à assister cette fillette de 9 ans qui passe cette année en 3 ème primaire, malgré son état.
Les examens exigés, à kasa vubu, on doit amener 10$, qui semble déjà être difficile à être trouver...
A vous de réagir!
La grand mère de Bellefie vous remercie tous pour ce que vous avez fait pour BELLEFIE!
Qui, maintenant, est entre les mains d'un médecin.

Elle n'a que 8 ou 9 ans, orpheline de père, sa mère s'est remariée à tshikapa, et la petite Bellefie vit chez sa grand-mère partenelle. Elle se retrouve aujourd'hui avec le sida! Elle vient d'être accusée de sorcière parceque les affaires dans cette famille ne marche pas comme il fallait et sa cousine de moins d'une année était sérieusement malade qui a poussé la famille d'aller consulter une Eglise...Mais,certains membres de sa famille pense faire quelque chose, malgrè le manque de moyen.Déjà, à l'hôpital Kimbanguiste de kimbanseke, elle a été consulté et suivie par le medecin,mais, la petite n'est prise en charge, et le medecin le propose d'aller à l'hôpital général de kinshasa, mais, la famille ne sait pas que faire parcequ'elle n'a pas de moyen.
Hier,son oncle partenel est venu solliciter l'assistance pour la recherche d'une prise en charge socio medicale à la fille qui a le droit d'être assister et nous avons nous le devoir d'assister Bellefie...
Cet oncle est convaincu que, Bellefie ne pourra pas rester sans assistanct malgrè le soit disant du pasteur...
A tous les compétents, cet appel...
Que faire pour Bellefie?

Dear Marlou,

Thank you for the informative mini-tour welcome. I am trying to make enough time to read and digest the wealth of offerings that this vibrant community has shared.

Looking forward to learning from all.

Warm regards,
