Errorist lecture for Human Right Activists.

The past week I was an observer at the Human Rights Colloquium here in Sao Paulo organized by Conectas. It is important but tough stuff. The young and old Human Rights Activists make the discussions very lively through their questions and remarks out of their daily practises.
On the last morning of the colloquiem I gave a P.A.P.A. lecture about Errorism as the new Human Right, the right to make mistakes. The lecture was translated simultaneously in three languages.

Through the vivid response in the room while presenting I think people got the point. New thinking they said. It did relate to the morning evaluation. The discussion whether to organize groups by language or allow misunderstandings and organize groups by fields of interest. The fact that everybody in the room is a Human rights Activist does not mean people have not felt hurt by other peoples prejudices. True we are all humans. We do make mistakes. If you dare to cross the error barrier mistakes can be blessings in disguise.

Two people in the room came from Lagos. On the questions they asked I could feel that they felt typecasted through the PAPA Lagos finds and patterns. Very unlike the other people in the room. Many of them from neighbouring African countries. Asking me whether PAPA had already correspondents in their country. My feeling I have to get to the public space in my own country as the next step in the development of P.A.P.A. proofs to be the right decision. The next P.A.P.A. Lab will be in Rotterdam The Netherlands.
