Last week, the documentary "Music by Prudence" received the Oscar for best short documentary. This documentary tells the story of the Zimbabwean Prudence Mabhena.

Is it strange that VVOB reports about the Oscars? Not quite. VVOB Zimbabwe has a partnership with the King George VI School: next year they provide internships for Flemish students (see Summary Internships).

We look forward to this documentary, which will be distributed in May.
