[2011/08/13 09:30:02 PM] Anonomous- professional
working in a program for HIV children and adults : Reading the Book”
dependency to Dignity” the book was a shock to my consciousness!!!...
Wow!- I’m soberly realising, how I have also been a
fly in the ointment of change, - not agreeing with all the in conducive
cultural disempowerment going on, hurting me deep in my heart, but struggling
with no tools despite all my professional qualifications –it's all theory! And empowerment is hardcore stuff, and this book gives it to us straight and truthful, based on proper experience. I so often gave over to defeat, yet I
stayed in limbo because i had no alternative that was effective with the disempowerment level of the Africans.
And then shocked even
more by the deep realisation that me being the high-energy expending
practitioner, has minimal sustainable outcomes... It's an amazing A2B scale to us efor all applications: it's an eye opener to realise that I’m on A levels in my own work tasks; A2 or maybe maybe only maybe occasionally A3
in some tasks of work – needless to say it’s true! – now I know why i have felt
so ineffective, always felt there must be more to making change happen...- i
knew I can’t be putting in so much energy for this little amount of results....
there needs to be more effectiveness and transformation! This A2B book is the HUMAN EMPOWERMENT BIBLE! I keep it with me everywhere I go! It's a guidebook that saved me in the work I do! I have new hope for the disempowered!
