The Kenya Adult Leaners Association
organized a Learners Week on 25 July - 1 August 2002. The event
was attended by learners from other parts of Africa and abroad.
************
Background...
Since 1996, KALA (the Kenya Adult Learners Association) has organized a Literacy
Week within January and April in eight provinces in Kenya, with the aim
of mobilizing learners. Medals and/or awards were given to "hard-working"
learners or to learners sustaining the learners movement. KALA has also
invited adult learners from other African countries to join Kenya's adult
learners week – and has helped set up adult learners associations in Zambia,
Zimbabwe, South Africa, Uganda, Malawi, Ghana, Sierra Leone, and Tanzania.
