“My name is Anta, and I participated in the mentoring training on Saturday, October 5th and Sunday, October 6th. It was very interesting and enriching in terms of multiculturalism. I was able to meet many other nationalities. The second day was a little more physical; we were able to test our endurance. I was very stressed and scared, but with a good team spirit, I was able to overcome my fears, etc. Thank you.“
