    What participants say

    'Mart and Michel, in my view, stand out dramatically for me. They came here to give lectures and run workshops i.e.
    they came to teach and empower. Yet in many ways they came to learn as well. They did not allow both what they heard and saw to close their minds from learning and being enriched by the diversity and beauty of African culture.'

    'It was a great pleasure to see how the trainees flowed with 
    Michel on the first day, and it was because of the experience he has as a trainer. 
    His teaching is more practical and he allows the trainees 
    to take part in the entire training which makes the trainees more active and vigilant.'
    Joshua Kaufman - Trainer at Work 4 All - South Africa
