This newsletter along with all the videos and photos I've uploaded this far should give an idea of how this trip went.
I'm going to try and do a video post over the weekend. This has been my first week back and the levels of admin has been ridiculous! So I'm going to post outstanding clips of the group and pictures and..maybe film a video blog and keep things moving.
I can already hear 2014 pounding at my door with big plans! I have a lot of work to do.
Josias has been accepted onto a two year teacher training course that starts on Monday 13th January 2013. Help get him there!
To round off my trip, I had the pleasure of being on Radio Phoenix in Lusaka as a guest on DJ Luche's show.
This was definitely a highlight of my trip. I had so much fun!
This is my follow up interview recorded half-way through my trip. The full show can be found here.

Recorded on the day I flew out to Mukuni, just over a month ago!
In this speacial episode of Diasporan Truth , host Twaambo Kapilikisha speaks to Mutsa Marau who is embarkingon phase three of her ‘Catch me I’m a butterfly’ project.Catch Me I’m A Butterfly is a creative HIV prevention peer education project. which has the intention of leaving behind the feelings of hopelessness that often arise when thinking of HIV/AIDS. This phase will focus on building communication between Mukuni and N’gandu, a neighboring village.To recruit more young people to train as peer educators to make the project more powerful!
A few snaps from my recent trip to Zambia to deliver phase three of 'Catch Me I'm A Butterfly'. More pictures over at Facebook.
Phones! Phones! Phones!
Due to the age old lesson that if you don't ask you don't get, I spend a lot of time asking for something or another.
I'm leaving for Zambia in a week's time and I want to trial a HIV SMS service that I want the young people to run! For this I need five smartphones so that for the three weeks I'm out there I can see if there is a demand for this service.Having a phone is such a an important part of our everyday lives. To be able to launch a service through which my young people will be able to share what they have learned without me being there and keep in touch with one another would be fantastic.
Got a smartphone you don't need? Please email me at hello [at] meetmutsa [dot] com. Or you can tweet or Facebook me if that takes your fancy.
Thank you advance!
I'm headed back! All the info of what's in store for my return to Mukuni!
At the moment we're at £325. I need £675 and this will mainly go towards transportation and food supplies so that we can work with as many young people as possible.The donation page is still open over at www.gofundme.com/meetmutsadanceathon.
