“We have good skills in entrepreneurship
(in Burkina Faso) because we have to. Life
is hard. School eliminates these skills. It
is our job (at 2iE) to help students come back to their talent, to
dust off those skills.”

“We always treat problems as
a good thing here at Lumiar. Problems require solutions,
and it’s in finding the solutions that the learning
happens… We teach our students
that there’s no such thing as failure. We encourage them to think: Well, that
didn’t work. So why didn’t it work? Now let’s try again..”

“I have learned to take control of my life. I have learned not to stand and
watch. In contrast with our other lessons, we had the
responsibility. Nobody gave us any solutions. It has
changed me completely. I found that the more you do, the more you can do.
I don’t want to be an employee now.”
