wtf is CINDE

as per request, i will describe what the organization i work for does. CINDE's mission is to improve education and human development of children in the most impovershed areas of colombia and around the world through a unique capacity building model that empowers community leaders and mothers to gain competency in educating and properly caring for their children at home and in community centers built by CINDE. this is done through CINDE sponsored projects, masters and doctorate programs that help in the creation of new knowledge about the effect of education on the prosperity of children, and utilizing their network to take advantage of resources and information to be used in the projects of CINDE. one of the parts of CINDEs mission is to create adequate environments both at home and in the community centers to foster healthy physical and psychological development within children. this is where i come in with the workshop proposal im working on that trains community promoters on how to improve the design of the environment so that they can in turn train the mothers within the communities. this project only developed like 2 days ago when it was brought to CINDEs attention that i am very unhappy with the work theyre giving me.

aaaaaaaand thats it.
