Podcast - still in Kolguli - Phoebe and the elder midwife and Nat sings with the tribal children

Submitted by Nathalie McDermott on November 22, 2006 - 06:11.

In this podcast, Phoebe meets an elder midwife in Kolguli and speaks to her about childbirth practices over the years within her tribe.  I also have a sing-song with some of the kids who burst out laughing when I started to sing which I'm sure was a compliment?

Podcast - the singing begins at the adivasi school in Gudalur

Submitted by Nathalie McDermott on November 22, 2006 - 05:17.

The school that ACCORD set up with the adivasis was a very relaxed and happy place with kids from 5 different tribes learning adademic subjects as well as art, crafts and tribal history and culture.  To find out more about Vidyodaya, click here.

They also learn English at the school - they speak 8 languages - and I tried to teach them a ninth, Gaelic, which they picked up with frightening ease... Also, featured in this podcast, is the famous 'Monkeys versus Donkeys', Unltd's lasting contribution to the children of southern India!
