At the end of the Africa Forum, Wilfred Maina, Regional Chairperson, Tigabu Gebramedin, Deputy Regional Chairperson, Africa Region and the Secretary General met internationally renowned Cricket Umpire Steve Bucknor. In the brief discussions, they described to Mr. Bucknor the activities of ICEVI and its collaboration with the International Blind Sports Federation (IBSA) which is promoting sports among blind people. They informed that the July 2005 issue of The Educator will be devoted to sports and recreation for persons with visual impairment and invited him to write on this subject. Mr. Bucknor has agreed to do so and so look for Mr. Bucknor's message in next year's Educator!
