ACTED Newsletter #50 October 2008
EDITORIAL
The first issue of ACTED’s Newsletter was published 5 years ago day to day. 50 issues later, our monthly magazine has evolved alongside ACTED, with extra pages and new columns. At first, ACTED’s newsletter was solely an internal source of information edited over four pages in English. Now this monthly magazine published in French and in English is meant to be a wide means of information on the programmes implemented in the field by our staff, and of awareness raising of the public on our main activities. Through the publication of this monthly magazine, we want our partners, as well as all of the people supporting us, to follow closely the implementation of our projects and to share our challenges as well as our successes. We hope that this Newsletter will keep inspiring its regular and new readers, and that you will enjoy this 50th issue.
