The children who participated in the workshops in Cape Verde during 2009/2010

None of the workshops in Cape Verde would have had any importance, had it not been for the children who participated in them. Many of these children had never had photos taken, except for school identification purposes and so I would like to show them my gratitude by having their group photos published, as I believe some of them will play an important role in their communities one day.
