And then the day after the exhibition opening I flew to Addis Ababa for the start of the British Council Footprints project workshop. We met the group in Nigeria last year - did some basic photography, audio and research training enabling the participants to go and research their family histories. Participants came from 6 African countries and the UK and 6 months or so later we were to meet in Addis and make digital stories from their research.
So over 20 of us more or less took over the hotel we were staying at and most definately took over the British Council's Addis office.
Addis was a beautiful setting for the workshop - very high up, cool sunlight and very warm people. Although from the start I was pretty flat out coordinating participants, schedules and training with Katharina.
