The Neurokandengues project tries to give a voice to this group of socially excluded people, who do not speak, do not walk and live on the periphery and in places where few arrive. There are no barriers impossible to break down&#8221;, declared the winner of the Tigra Nova Garra2021 Awards, in the Health category.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
