PAWLO has become a member of the Civil Organisation´s network for Brandenburg called Verbund Entwicklungspolitischer Nichtregierungsorganisationen (VENRO.) Uwe Pruefer from VENRO gave an overview on the goels and strategies of the network. The audience had many questions and remarks on why German civil organisations structural discriminate against black ngos and their grant applications, the structural differences of interest of ngos´from the north and ngo´s from the south. His answer was that he cannot perform miracles and that espeacially the area of the former DDR is not commonly used to the sight of black people, but that the participation of PAWLO in the VENRO is a 1st step in the right direction.
