The
school of Olof Palme in central Haiti, was founded 1994. The name
was inspired from the murdered Swedish minister of state, Olof Palme.
From
the beginning the school was very simple, but thanks to campaigning
by schools in Skellefteå, Sweden, Lekol Olof Palme today consists
of buildings built by stone and now has about 200 pupils. Most of
them are youngsters, but there are also grown-up students, studying
at the evening school.
For
the future the primary goal is to get electricity and have some
computers running. There is also lack of school material, food for
the children, etc
If
you are interested to learn more about the school, please send a
line to the chairman for he Support committé of the school
of Olof Palme, Sweden: swedish writer Göran Lundin.
