Dear Listers We have completed the first phase of our DV and Pasha research. It has been FUN and INFORMATIVE! Olitoktok Nyeri Ukambani We are hoping that Francis Hook will be the lead on the Western link. We are also hoping that Wainana will be the lead on the Nyanza link. I will try to take a brief look at some spots on the coast. *Is there anyone on the list who can lead a group to Embu Meru? *Are there people on the list who can provide a car for Embu Meru, and are there people who can help go along and assist with gas money? Are there other people who want to finish off the road to *Kajiado Kitengela or look at spots anywhere else? * Are there any people on the list who are willing to sit with me for a *training on how to administer the protocol? * It would be ideal to wrap up this research insofar as possible by the end of the month. I leave Kenya August 23, and I need to take as many surveys as possible with me, so I can analyze them. Please email me at *warigia@gmail.com* if you are interested in either of these matters.

Dear Listers

Here is the schedule as it currently stands. We will visit both ICT Board pashas and Safaricom Dvs.

*Monday, August 8th: Visit Nyeri.* Victor Gathara providing transport. I think we have room for one more person in the car. Please pitch in a bit for gas if you want to come. Tuesday, August 9th: Unscheduled (working with Patrick Mule from Safaricom)

*Wednesday, August 10: Visit Ukambani*. Warigia Bowman providing transport. I think we have room for two more in the car. Thursday unscheduled. Friday unscheduled. *Saturday August 13th: Wainana is flying to Nyanza*, and will evaluate locations there.

*If you have a car, and are willing to lead a trip please advise.* This is a civil society effort. Safaricom is not providing funding. We are self-funding.

Sincerely, Rigia
