[LM_NET] GEN: One school, one library, one librarian campaign in South Africa

["Giffard, Sue" <SGiffard@ECFS.ORG>]

A follow-up article to one previously posted, about the campaign in South Africa by 
the lobbying group Equal Education, which is making school libraries and librarians 
a central theme in its campaign for high quality education based on rights 
enshrined in the 1994 constitution. A central figure in this campaign, Zachie 
Achmat, headed the Treatment Action Campaign, which fought in court and on the 
streets for the right to treatment for HIV/AIDS, based on the constitution.

"Perhaps the only victory available [is] the victory of the heart over its own 
inclinations for despair, revenge and hatred." (Leonard Cohen, September 24, 2009)
