[PDFlist] [Pdf-women] [PDF-youth] Join us tomorrow for a Side vent webinar on Intellectual Disability

[Nabee 999 Biira T Kiata]

Hi Paradise
My apologies for not attending the webinar session, I had a connection
problem, I tried to connect yesterday but I couldn't.
Today we had continuing on the connection problem, and we tried to fix it.
Sorry for that, although I am not in the session, I supported all of you. I
hope this will not be happening again.


Kind regards

Ruby
