I am sad about the US in-justice demos and Uganda's maid who battered a two year old and the youth with a toy gun also killed. I believe CLC has a very long way to go. Don't you think so?

Why this blog today?

We explored the power of appreciation and its impact on stigma among people using drugs and their families. In the spirit of appreciation, enormous strengths of reconciliation were evident and over flows to neighborhoods were…

ABOUT TRANSFER - When the Constellation team shares its excitement about its approach and the impact it has on their lives, some people want to apply it in their context, and invite us to facilitate them. Together with them, we transfer the approach. The TRANSFER function organizes (at scale) the response to invitations of people and communities to apply the appreciative way of working (SALT) and the CLCP learning cycle.

we came together and shared personal practices: Laurie guided us through the preparation of vegetarian recipes…

Rupesh, 27, Civil Engineer, has two sisters and one brother. From his 13 up until his 22, he was committed to sports. He even used to play for the Mauritius national team. But with sports you can’t earn a living in Mauritius. When Rupesh began working at the age of 22, he earned a lot of money. He made very long working days and put aside his sports.…

Good morning,
