This Bambara book is designed in the behalf of the Peace Corps Trainees learning Bambara to<br />

help them meet the needs of Peace Corps <strong>Mali</strong> in terms of their linguistic and cultural training as<br />

Volunteers.<br />

As this manual will be mostly used during the training that happens among the village<br />

communities, its contents are based upon the CBT style.<br />

We hope then, dear PCTs, that the use of this book could contribute efficiently not only<br />

to your training in Bambara language, but also to culturally guiding you, future volunteers.<br />

The success of this book in both fields will depend on its use relating on the realities of<br />

your training sites.<br />

This trainee book ″Kalanden ka Gafe” is designed as follows:<br />
