While in San Diego, California, to attend my daughter's graduation, I had an opportunity to visit Project Concern International (PCI). The non-profit organisation (http://www.pciglobal.org/pci/mission)was founded by Dr. Jim Turpin in 1961 with the goal of providing health and poverty solutions to children and communities around the world. PCI recently published their "Resource Manual on Trafficking in Persons in Ethiopia," which will soon be available to download on their website.
During my visit I met with Bettina B. Halvorsen, M.A., and Deanne Samuels, Ph.D. Bettina is PCI's senior new business development officer and Seattle, WA Representative. Deanne is a senior technical officer for research, M&E. This initial meeting was to learn more about each other's organisations and explore possibilities for collaboration.
I hope to meet PCI's representative in Ethiopia in June.
