			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A quoi sert une ONG ? Ou va l&#8217;argent des donneurs qu&#8217;ils soient gouvernements ou individus ? &#8230; dans un pays plus connu pour la corruption que la chaleur de ses habitants.</p>
<p>Comment les ONG travaillent-elles sur le terrain ? Que réalisent-elles de manière concrète ? Ce fut un des  buts de 2 semaines passées avec 3 jeunes étudiants britanniques en Moldavie. Un programme unique grâce à l&#8217;<a href="http://www.caritas.org/">ONG catholique internationale CARITAS</a> : séjour dans un centre médico-social géré par <a href="http://www.caritas.md/index.php?mod=page">CARITAS Moldova</a> et dont la construction a été financée par le gouvernement allemand, refuge pour enfants abandonnés (Gouvernement autrichien), et enfin pendant la deuxième semaine, participation active à un centre aéré qui comptait un centaine d&#8217;enfants à Staunceni dans la banlieue de la capitale moldave Chinisau&#8230;.</p>
<p><span id="more-76"></span>Expérience personnelle et professionnelle inoubliable que j&#8217;espère faire partager à la rentrée à mes étudiants de LSE. Les Moldaves sont pas non seulement accueillants, la Moldavie, pays de langue et culture romanes fait aussi partie de l&#8217;<a href="http://www.francophonie.org/">Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie</a> et frappe à la porte de l&#8217;Union européenne.</p>
<p>Nous avons eu aussi l&#8217;opportunité d&#8217;aller en <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9publique_moldave_de_Transnistrie">Transnistrie</a> où CARITAS Moldova travaille aussi beaucoup. La Transnistrie russophone fit sécession lors de la chute du communisme et priva en conséquence la Moldavie de sa base industrielle et de son unique centrale électrique. La <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moldavie">Moldavie</a> qui compte officiellement 4.5 millions d&#8217;habitants (1 million travaillerait à l&#8217;étranger) est aujourd&#8217;hui le pays le plus pauvre d&#8217;Europe et la Transnistrie n&#8217;est reconnue que par la Russie.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230; <strong>from the shackles of poverty. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Sponsored triathlon:</strong> 750 m swimming, 20 km cycling, 5 km running on 8th June, Blenheim Palace.</p>
<p><a href="http://hervedidiotcook.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/images6.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-61" src="http://hervedidiotcook.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/images6.jpg?w=118&#038;h=59" alt="" width="118" height="59" /></a></p>
<p>What an honour for me, a French citizen to compete on the fabulous grounds of the Duke of Marlborough&#8217;s Estate (<em>Quand Marlborough s&#8217;en va en guerre&#8230;</em>) and&#8230; birthplace of Winston Churchill !!</p>
<p>But why am I asking you to sponsor me ?<span id="more-62"></span>I went last year to Moldova, one of the poorest countries in Europe and I met amazing people. I discovered what <a href="http://www.caritas.org/">international charity CARITAS</a> was achieving : 1st class social and medical centres, outstanding homeless refuge&#8230; This trip was part a major fundraising campaign organised for a few years now by my local parish (<a href="http://www.st-james-twickenham.org.uk/">St James&#8217;, Twickenham</a>) and priest Fr Ulick Loring (former LSE chaplain). I was able to see that the money raised was indeed well spent.</p>
<p>This year we&#8217;ve done a pub quiz, the kids did a cycle ride from St James to Windsor Castle and we are organizing a student exchange between our parishes in July/August. I am responsible for taking a group of teenagers out to Molodova for 2 week.</p>
<p>I am now fundraising towards the cost of my journey (Yes it&#8217;s cheaper to fly to New York than to Kishinev, the Moldovan capital !!).</p>
<p>So you can either sponsor me by sending me an email h.didiot-cook@lse.ac.uk or by replying to the &laquo;&nbsp;comment&nbsp;&raquo; below. Thanks for your help and support.</p>

However since 2003 we have developed a mentoring scheme which really makes a difference. Students visit once a week a school to assist teenagers in learning French using a VLE. Guess what ? It works and they all benefited from it. Nevertheless, this scheme requires motivation, good communication, user friendly technology and of course&#8230; funding.</p>

<p>Un musée consacré à l&#8217;histoire de l&#8217;immigration ? Excellente initiative&#8230; Cependant la contribution de centaines de milliers de soldats coloniaux a été complétement négligée. Seuls sont mentionnés les volontaires européens (Photo ci-contre)&#8230; Aucune référence sur les <a href="http://www.afrik.com/article8374.html">tirailleurs sénégalais</a> tombés contre les allemands en 1940 dans la campagne lyonnaise&#8230; spahis, <a href="http://www.indigenes-lefilm.com/">goumiers et autres soldats de l&#8217;Empire</a> venus combattre pour la libération de la France en 1944/5&#8230; C&#8217;est peut-être parce que ce musée est bien la <a href="http://www.histoire-immigration.fr/">&laquo;&nbsp;Cité Nationale de l&#8217;Histoire de l&#8217;Immigration&nbsp;&raquo;</a> &#8230; et <a href="http://www.premier-ministre.gouv.fr/iminidco/">de l&#8217;Identité Nationale</a> ?</p>
