After many difficulties in organizing the transport of the fishing boat to Burundi, which had been refurbished together with the Labora youth workshop as part of the “Stärken vor Ort” project, we were finally successful: Mr. Dietrich von Berg, Honorary Consul of Burundi, promised support from the “Helfen Direkt e.V.” association.
On August 2, the time had come and we were able to load the boat. This was preceded by many discussions and deliberations in our workshops. There was a lot of concern that the boat would not fit into the container. In the end, however, a good solution was found.
The container will be transported to Dar es Salaam on the container ship “Susan Maersk” and will then travel overland across Tanzania to Bujumbura, the capital of Burundi.
