June 20, 2009: Fielding questions from everywhere
This week I have spent some time researching contact details for the
local press and preparing a short statement with the aim of informing
them of my selection as an Alcoa Earthwatch Fellow and the work that
will be carried out on the expedition. I have already been contacted by
one local newspaper regarding the story and am hopeful that more
responses will follow. I have also agreed to write a piece for my
community newsletter which is distributed to almost 900 households in
the surrounding villages.
Interest is also mounting with my colleagues at Kawneer and also my
friends and family. I have been fielding questions that range from
what work will be done and how the information gained will be used to
what sort of accommodation we will be staying in and what sort of food
we will be eating. Fortunately the time invested in reading the
Earthwatch expedition briefing and the Alcoa Earthwatch diaries has
covered all these questions so far.
