March 23: Final results from Bissa Barka workshop

I received word from Pam today that the Bissa Barka workshop resulted in an initial tally of 13,915 words being collected. That is about a thousand more than estimates from the first week led us to expect. At the same time, the word-collection groups were able to complete all of the most important of the semantic domains, and there were only about 110 domains that they didn't get to. That is MUCH better than we were expecting based on the pace of the first week. I'm very pleased with the results of this workshop. The Bissa were a great group of people to work with, and Pam and Pastor Alphonse did a great job preparing for it. Congratulations to all who participated in one way or another!
