Teacher
Graça with her thesis supervisor and jury

We are
proud to congratulate our ALG Scholarship holder Graça Silvestre Sitoe, who got
her Accounting and Auditing degree last week at the Chokwé Economy and
Management College (ESEG)!
Teacher Graça has been working in the education
area for 15 years and currently she teaches Portuguese and Music to 6th
grade students at the São Vicente de Paulo School in Chokwé, her home town. She
is married and has five children.
Four years ago, teacher Graça decided to go
back to study and enrolled herself in the Accounting and Auditing degree after
working hours. Since then she has been a role model for her students and
colleagues, motivating several other teachers to follow her example. ALG
supported her studies until 2014 through a Uni Sponsorship paying for school fees,
documentation and other educational costs.

It was a long and difficult journey – managing
a full time job, a big family and classes every night – but it was worth it! Teacher
Graça presented her final dissertation today: “The importance of Internal Audit
for Companies’ Development” before an audience composed by her supervisor,
family, friends and the two UPG Portugal volunteers.
The presentation went very well and teacher Graça
is now our newest graduate!
In her thesis’ acknowledgements teacher Graça thanked
ALG for “the huge contribution we provided to her educational path.”
We could not be prouder!
