Welcome to our blog!

Hi everyone and welcome to our blog!

We are 5 students from UPC and we are part of an association from our university called AUCOOP. This summer we are going to Sierra Leone, to Saint John of God's hospital, to bring them some help in improving their internet networks and their softwares.

Our main goals are:


→ Install an internet network in different placements of the hospital where it's much needed.

→ Install two new softwares, one in their nursing school and other in the hospital.

→ Teach the administrators in using those new installed softwares.

→ Draw a plane of all the buildings of the hospital, with a proper scale, to make easier the planning of future projects.

→ Diagnose other problems that can be solved in future trips there.


In this blog we will be posting updates of our project and our experience in Sierra Leone and in some way we will try to approach to you the culture and situation of that country and its people.

First goodbye

Today we said goodbye to a part of our team, Quim. He is now going to the airport and yesterday we made a little party to say goodbye to him. After a hard-working day, we gave him a little present, as you can see in this photo:



Then we went to a party organized by Francesco, who have been here for 2 years as a Cuamm worker; for the occasion we were all wearing the same typical african shirt. We shared some drinks and some music with the locals and then we continued the party at home. We played some games, we danced and we ended up with a water battle. 


Today morning we have trained the administrator of the school how to use the school software, and he had learned very quickly.



Quim and Sonia continued working as a team/marriage and we had lunch all together. After that, Quim left to the airport and we went to the nursing school to made a little interview to our friend Patrick for one project. Here you can see a frame of the video:



Now we are going to the tailor to pick up all our gifts and clothes, tomorrow we will show you some photos.
