The Africa Study Group's major function is to promote a broader relationship between Canada and Africa. Occasionally, we are informed of the work done by NGOs in Africa. Tostan, which operates mostly in West Africa, is headquartered in the United States and receives funding from many sources. If you want to acquaint yourself more thoroughly with that work and Tostan’s success and credentials in the world of smaller international NGOs, visit the website www.tostan.org. Support to Tostan in Canada is coordinated by Cynthia Baxter ( cynbax@sympatico.ca , 613-749-2322) who would be pleased to provide more information.
