Boditti Primary School primary lot
Boditti, Etiopia |
|
| The development
of the city, and the continuous growth of the population which counts
at least 1500 children of primary school age, brought these organisations
to the decision to build three school units in order to withhold the
children who are a part of the 15.000 habitants of Boditti. The 18
classes will be a part of an integrated project which includes not
only the drinkable water well which has already been created by the
organisation, but also a small clinic completed on Oct. 1st 2007,
administration and laboratories for craft activities for women. |
