At the 2009 World Forum on Early Care and Education, World Forum team member Michael Kalinowski interviewed early childhood professionals from around the world with great stories.  Starting today, and continuing every two weeks, we will broadcast these and other stories in a series of World Forum Radio podcasts. 

For the inaugural broadcast we feature Barnabas Otaala, Dean of Education at Uganda Martyr's University and a champion of the World Forum since day one.  Barnabas and Jacqueline Hayden were awarded a World Forum networking grant to study the impact of HIV/AIDS on young children in Namibia.  Their report, HIV/AIDS and the Young Child, which was distributed to all attendees at World Forum 2005 in Montreal, was the impetus for the establishment of the World Forum Voices of Hope working group.
