Our
Story |
The
Family Planning Private Sector (FPPS-K) now known as the Family
Programmes Promotion Services (FPPS) initiated the CHAPS programme
in 1994. The African Research and Education Puppetry Programme
(AREPP) of Johannesburg, South Africa conducted the pilot puppetry
training. The graduates formed the core team of FPPS/CHAPS puppetry
trainers.
