Olá, Manuel!
Esses programas são bons, mas é preciso que as pessoas interessadas saibam tirar partido deles.
Já estive na Guiné-Bissau a dar formação em situações semelhantes e adorei: tudo correu bem.
Se eu for necessário em Moçambique, apesar de já ser velho, ainda posso ir ajudar. Não quero muito dinheiro, basta alojamento, alimentação e deslocações. O resto eu resolvo.
Abraços.
