Still Praça Aurélio Gonçalves is under reconstruction, but the kiosk from Porto Novo has made the leap over the sea.

Unser
Reisehandbuch CABO VERDE
Kapverdische Inseln

im Verlag Reise-Know-How bekam gute Kritiken und wurde zum Bestseller, inzwischen in der 6. Auflage.

Die Reiseinformationen sind wieder aktuell und die Kapitel zu Geschichte und Kultur, welche die Besonderheit dieses Buchs ausmachen, haben wir weiter vertieft.

Doch, wie es das Schicksal jedes Reiseführers bleibt, hat sich schon bis zum Erscheinen wieder Einiges verändert. Dafür gibt es die Webseite Adenda.

Viel Spass beim Kennenlenren einer faszinierend Kultur in einem kleinen aber ungeahnt vielfältigen Land!

A new publication in german language on:
Child Health in Developing Countries

The extensive literature review on health problems and health service problems concerning children in poverty shows an actual global picture of risks, burden of disease and efective solutions. Chapters on the history of child health help to understand the crucial relationship to "distant factors" like peace, economy and social politics.

In the chapters on management of child health related social and health services, the authors make use of their extensive personal experience in a variety of countries, including the Republic of Cape Verde.

Charity project finances secured for 2006!

Thanks to private contributions from parents of a Kindergarden in Mörfelden-Walldorf / Germany and a support by the municipality of this little town close to Frankfurt Airport, the partnership continues strong in its 21st year of existence.
It will support this year:

  • improving the equipment of old age homes
  • upgrading of preschool teachers to allow the integration of handicapped children in Rª Grande - Santo Antao

January  2006

The accommodation list, meant to be a permanent update of our books, is modernized.

Now it is possible to use a translation-routine to contact the Hotels and Pension. This translation service makes it easier for none-portuguese speakers to contact the receptionists.
