The limelight of the month was a learning\/sharing demonstrations session which took place at the SPES Vocational and Multimedia Centre for trainees of all ages and needs. This event was organised by the SPES team of Teachers\/Assessors who carry out pedagogical skill assessments on the use of IT methodologies. To be noted that the SPES canteen provided tea and cakes, which contributed largely to a relaxed teaching and learning atmosphere enjoyed by all participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The visitors being specialists in book-binding were delighted to learn some internet and e-commerce techniques. A TV was also used to encourage interactivity as we were a group of mixed abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A surprise email arrived for the Vivre Debout group and they were all very amused to read the internet message the SPES Textile and Straw-work weavers suggesting that they try to use for their book-binding activities the SPES newly hand-made fibrework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lively dialogue on micro-enterprises and Marketing ensued on designer gift products employing the plant fibre extracts SPES produces as a follow-up of the research findings, described on SPES website July update the direct link is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
