Javid, Thank you for your insightful submission. Your advise is accepted with humility. This is a conference of the top scholars/doers/thinkers in Higher Education that are coming together to look at how to improve the quality of education with the MDGs in Africa. When I glanced at the listing of attendees I recognized the biggest names in the world in this field I could not believe that at my 2002 entree in this arena when a number of them heard me speak in Illinois at the conference: African Higher Education in the 21st Century. They grilled me upside down. I you can pass through their hands you know you must be made out of steel. I thank my mentors from Universities of Cambridge, Princeton, North Western and UCLA for being hard on me. The 16 best speakers/presentors were selected a few weeks ago and asked to publish before the conference. My role at this high level conference is not prescriptive. At no time can we take this conference lightly. Yes, we see look at how the ABC has performed... we see a higher prevalence that the country in question is concealing from the world. You are right that the numbers are inflated in some cases and I want to add they are also skewed. I concur with you that any strategy revision must be based on evidence. That is also part of sound public health policy to link epistemology to evidence-based practice. I want to be instrumental in shaping the Quality of Higher Education by incorporating the MDGs in all aspects of Higher Education. This will directly be linked to the grassroots, which lay the groundwork for community transformation. We call this the new wave for the future and I am excited about it. It is important that women use a protective method that is in synch with their worldview and I elaborate on this. I am presenting 8 models to that the world will see for the first time and I am actually ahead of the main event: how the GF should look 5 - 10 years from now because I have already answered that question and it is ready for implementation. I don't leave anything to chance and I am ready for the marathon. I thank all of you that have inspired me as I lit this candle in 1998 to transform Africa. The journey has been long and challenging but at least for the few months you have kept me company. It has inspired and challenged me to excel and remain committed to excellence. My goal to liberate Africa a continent I am very passionate about. I will stop at nothing to do this. I've made friends who I've come to appreciate and I know many of you on this e-forum are rooting for me. In 2003 I started working on a revolutionary way to implement the MDGs. It's here now and I am ready to put the systems in place that will liberate and transform Africa and the underdeveloped world. There is no turning back. My legacy is tied into my ability to deliver by liberating humanity of the scourge of illiteracy and HIV/AIDS. When they are liberated I know that what I fought for has not gone in vain. I don't know if I may live to see it but if I don't I will make sure I hand over the torch to someone special that I know will be 100% capable to carry it. My warmest regards and let us stay in touch Fenna
