One of my most successful days here so far

Three weeks ago, I started working on implementing an activity in my village called Amour & Vie. Run by a Beninese NGO partnered with the Peace Corps and other US aid groups, the program trains two peer educators and one community advisor on how to give formations on health-related topics (HIV/AIDS, malaria, water treatment, family planning, hygiene) to groups of people in our area.

The program is built to be sustainable. (If you can find the right people.) My role, even at the beginning, is minimal. It is the role of the community advisor to lead the team and find groups in the community whom they can educate. It is a program designed for me to have to say nothing.

We started working in the community two days ago. We gave pretests to gauge the level of knowledge our neighbors already have concerning these topics. My CA opened the program and then handed it over to my peer educators to help the individuals complete the tests. 

Me?

I sat there and said nothing.
