The Foundation’s 5th XICS centre in the African continent was opened on 13th May in the
central Malawian town of Chezi. The ceremony was attended by Foundation director general, Marta
Segú, representatives from the Foundation’s local partner, Active Africa, the staff of the
centre and many local people.
Local involvement
The
ceremony started with a blessing from local spiritual leaders, which was then followed by the
unveiling of a commemorative plaque. The party was rounded off with dancing and drama performed by
the children themselves.
