Justine Greening MP (Secretary of State for International Development), Tony German (Executive Director of <a href=\"http:\/\/devinit.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Development Initiatives<\/a>) and others spoke about the importance of continued international development, with a focus on the sharing of ideas and knowledge and providing practical training to allow people to develop in a sustainable way.<\/p>\n<p>This has always been Friends of Alalay&#8217;s approach. We are very proud to have been able to support 18 Alalay adolescents through their vocational training courses over the last 4 years &#8211; teaching them tangible skills as nurses, car mechanics and chefs and enabling them to leave poverty behind. We are just about to launch a new campaign to offer training courses to a further 8 boys &#8211; please do <a href=\"http:\/\/alalay.co.uk\/?page_id=38\" target=\"_blank\">contact us<\/a> if you would like to personally support a child. <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2393 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/alalay.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/CFID-Photo-3-1024x593.jpg\" alt=\"CFID Photo (3)\" width=\"640\" height=\"370\" srcset=\"http:\/\/alalay.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/CFID-Photo-3-1024x593.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/alalay.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/CFID-Photo-3-300x173.jpg 300w, http:\/\/alalay.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/CFID-Photo-3.jpg 1575w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week I attended a fascinating panel discussion at which I was able to speak with a number of people interested in Friends of Alalay and our work in Bolivia.
