We would like to pay our respects to Amadou Diol of ARED, Senegal who sadly passed<br />
away in June 2007. Amadou took the photos of the ARED training sessions. He was an<br />
exceptional trainer known well <strong>for</strong> his sense of humour and communication skills. He was<br />
highly regarded by his colleagues and by participants on ARED training courses and will<br />
be greatly missed.<br />
