THE REPORTS
|
The places are chosen by local partners, the NGO's associated with
this project. Well established and well experienced, they know local
problems and needs better than anyone. After a period of adaptation
for us and for the local population, we will be able to assimilate
the situation and to start compiling the different reports (video,
photo, written and with sound). Then we will use new technologies
: camera, digital camera, digital sound recorder, portable computer,
personal organizer, mobile phone, GPS.

"We will show them via technology and our
western perspective how we perceive them." JC CRESPEL

We see this period as an exchange ;
this is why our tools enable us also to show them with photos
and videos the environment in which we live and our country. The
presentations are mainly visual and based on sound, which reduces
linguistic problems.

"We would like to surprise and stimulate
the children by putting a walkman MP3 on their ears and enabling them
to listen to the sounds of western culture as well as everyday sounds
which are familiar to them (village festivals, voices of people of their
family)" Auray AUN
With the help of the local contact, we detect
the aids that we can bring, giving the priority to long-term problems:
education, taking into account also matters of urgency (health, hygiene,
food) and the NGO positioning (children sponsorship, medical follow-up,
etc.)

A real-life test :
"In January 2001, I stopped my work for a month in order to test
the project and the material in the field.
Unlike Auray, I had never been to Asia, so it was important for
me to know if I could adapt to living conditions.
Accompanied by a friend (Valentine) over there, we made a tour of
10 000 km in Centinental China. Welcomed by Chinese people, we lived
in villages and in towns at the same rhythm as them. "You are the
first foreigners to come to us since the Japaneses in the 40's,
and they did not come with the same intentions" an old man told
us.
Valentine teaches journalism in China. She was therefore able to
give me some useful tips and helped me with some editorial techniques."JC CRESPEL
