Peter Brook, a Shakespearean theatre director, had this comment to make about Africa:

"This large continent is only known through its stereotypes. Brazil is not only samba , as Africa isnīt only a place for Negroes, or the beating of drums & AIDS. To-date there is little respect for the high African culture. The Negro is seen either as the violent primitive, or the happy simpleton." (Estado do São Paulo aug/04 )

We at IAAF believe that the dramatist's concerns coincide with the spirit of Ceafro - Afro-Oriental Studies Center, of Universidade Federal da Bahiaīs mission, which is to educate for racial & gender equality.

Ceafro does not believe that in order to solve the question of racial discrimination in Brazil, all that is necessary are new paradigmes of equality & identity reconstruction. Technical capacitation of the minorities is essencial, and as much as possible as a state of the art of such technologies. Thatīs why Ceafro takes advantage of IAAFīs readiness to support an Introduction to Computer Network Technologies course.
