Description
Partly based on the teachings of Brazilian educator Paulo Friere, and his notions of education for development, the "Kaputal Project" was a collaboration between local Zambian and international non-profit agencies and the local Catholic Church. Part of the plan was to build and help staff a local self-help center, built of local materials and focused on local needs.
