			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is one event I wish I could have attended. It took place in Accra, Ghana 2 weeks after I left. The underlying theme of <a href="http://makerfaireafrica.com/">Makers Faire inaugural event </a>is to celebrate <strong>ingenuity, innovation and invention</strong> within Africa.The key words here are to <strong>celebrate and have fun</strong> while <strong>absorbing,interacting</strong> and <strong>learning</strong> from the <strong>creativity</strong> of others.</p>
<p>What I loved most about the promotion of this event is that there are no educational and or professional restrictions on participating as Maker at MFA.</p>
<p>Looking forward to <a href="http://makerfaireafrica.com/2009/08/19/going-forward-with-maker-faire-africa-mfa-2010-etc/">Maker Faire 2010</a> in Nairobi, Kenya</p>
