- Peace Corps : Sierra Leone : Mende Language Manual
- Date
- 1989
- Creator
- Kuyateh, Albaji Sheik; Conteh, Frederick
- Publisher
- American University Library. Archives and Special Collections.
- Description
- The purpose of this updated manual is to enable Peace Corps Volunteers in Sierra Leone to interact freely with the community in which they find themselves. One communicates and socializes through language; knowing the language and culture of a group of people is becoming part of those people. The Mende manual is specifically designed for those who will work in Mende-speaking areas. In order to acquire some proficiency in the language, the 'Brewster Method' should supplement this information. This manual provides a more functional knowledge in both language and culture, for all Volunteers. It therefore focuses on all Peace Corps Volunteer occupations. It will also help Volunteers to work effectively with the local community.
