This Colloquium, sponsored by the International Catholic Movement for Intellectual and Cultural Affairs (ICMICA) Pax Romana was organised in close cooperation with the two hosting organisations: the Christian Professionals of Tanzania (CPT) and the Taaluma Women Group (TWG). Our Tanzanian hosts, though poor in material wealth made our stay and the meeting an unforgettable occasion by making all of us feel at home with a rich culture of hospitality and welcome.
