Langouani, Idjouki, Pangoani ('Wake up'), a school for indigenous pupils<br />
In 2009, the ‘Center for the<br />
Education of Indigenous Peoples’<br />
(CEPA) officially opened the doors of<br />
the first school for semi-nomadic<br />
pupils, the first of its kind in the<br />
Sangha department of ROC. The<br />
school was named ‘Langouani,<br />
Idjouki, Pangoani’, three words each<br />
meaning ‘Wake up!’ in three Pygmy<br />
languages (Mikaya, Bangombe and<br />
Mbendjele, respectively). IFO built<br />
the school to offer education to<br />
approximately 100 Pygmy children,<br />
aged 9 to 14, who would not<br />
normally enroll in public schools.<br />
Although the school was transferred<br />
to the Congolese administration in<br />
2014, IFO continued to serve meals<br />
to the pupils, as an incentive to<br />
attend classes.<br />
Keeping the forest and bettering lives<br />
Dutch writer Meindert Brouwer<br />
visited IFO in 2016. His<br />
vibrant, personal account is<br />

Forever’ (click here or scan the<br />
