Updated Arrival Guide and Twaweza Library

The Intern Arrival Guide has just been updated (Twaweza Guide International 290710) with some information about daladalas, a map of Dar es Salaam, and flight layovers. Thanks to Jacqui and Johannes for the feedback and help. The updated file is now available on the Google Group. Also, we can look forward to a Kenyan version of the Arrival Guide, thanks to Uri in the Nairobi office.

Also, a new website has been created for Twaweza Library: http://twawezalibrary.wordpress.com

It is a resource for literature (academic papers, books, reports, etc.) relevant to Twaweza's work, with summaries and links to the original documents. Hard copies are available in the office and copies of the literature on the server. Unfortunately, due to copyright issues on the literature, the website with the posted documents cannot be made public and is for internal Twaweza reference use only. An email has been sent to the listserv with the username and password, but you can email me if you still need access. If you would like to contribute to the library, a guide/template for posting to the website has been uploaded to the Google group also (Protocol for Uploading to Twaweza Library).
