New POSITIVO song to protect the planet !

DSC03109

Hello POSITIVOS from our endangered planet,

ALMA song is ready today.

The name of the song is ‘Se o quintal fica limpo’, which means ‘if the garden is clean’. A story ? The song was written during a workshop in Cine-Teatro Tofo on the 4th of april and recorded on the 15th in BOM DIA studio in Inhambane. The delay between these 2 dates was due to malaria intrusion. Participants in the workshop are women and men living and working in dump sites of Tofo and Inhambane, and now working for ALMA.

This song is a POSITIVO gift to the planet and a tribute to ALMA’s fantastic waste management and recycling work in Inhambane province of Mozambique.

Enjoy

Letter from POSITIVO campaign manager

darren

Dear positive people everywhere,

I would like to take this opportunity to share with you my thoughts on Positivo and what we are doing.

2007 was a year of changes for all involved in Positivo. Following Roland, Helio and Pierre’s trip to Mangunde, where they created the amazing song “Eu nao tenho medo (I am not afraid), Helen and I spent many evenings discussing the Positivo concept, with friends working in health and HIV prevention. Within a week there was a consolidation of ideas and principles that we felt were important.
