Page 5 Inside: ENGLISH VERSION 2 K ujengana is a very important part of your Small Group weekly meeting. It says in Ephesians 4:15,16 that we are to build each other up into the fullness of Christ. Each person in your TIST Small Group brings his or her own special talents and gifts to the entire group. One of the wonderful things that happen in the Small Group is recognizing, sharing and using those God-given talents. Kujengana is a way to let those talents be seen and be used.There are two parts to Kujengana: 

• Before the closing prayer, every person in the group says one specific, positive thing that the leader did at that meeting. For example, they smiled, kept to time, made good plans, encouraged all group members to speak, greeted me and made me feel welcome, pointed out something that was going very well in the meeting or in the work the group was doing, etc. Each member needs to say something different. This is not optional. Everyone gives Kujengana to the servant leader. Some groups also give Kujengana to the co-leader. 

• In addition, if someone sees a gift shown by the leader, a group member can also say that. With Rotating Leadership, each week a new leader will receive Kujengana. Through Kujengana, we encourage each other on the good things that week’s leader did in the meeting and the talents the person showed. Kujengana is also the way we learn to look for positive things about people and then say them. We all need to train our tongues to say the positive. In addition, the whole group learns what that group thinks is important in a servant leader. The next leaders will benefit from what they have heard in Kujengana about previous leaders and know what the groups think is important in being a servant leader. In response to Kujengana, that week’s servant leader just says, “Thank you” after each group member’s specific, positive statement. There is no discussion about how it could have been done better, or differently. Often, the person is happy when he or she is told the good things he or she did during the meeting. Sometimes we learn things about ourselves we didn’t know! Kujengana helps the leader on that day recognize his or her talents and how to keep on using them. Kujengana also helps the Small Group because all the members improve their servant leadership as they learn. Kujengana is a double blessing! Kujengana: Don’t miss the blessing for your Small Group and Cluster. ENGLISH VERSION 3 I ndigenous trees are tree species that have developed in Africa and are well suited to the environment they developed in. They may improve soil and attract birds and helpful insects. Different trees will grow better in different places. From TIST Seminars and Cluster

 meetings,TIST participants have identified types of indigenous trees that are very good and beneficial in their areas. Some of these are described below, and we thank the World Agroforestry Centre for this information on benefits and seed collection and preparation for success. Please consider some of them in your next planting season, and let us know some of the best kinds in your area! a. Prunus Africana (Kikuyu: Muiri, Kimeru: Mweria) This indigenous tree is mainly found in forest reserves. Seeds are available in forests during the dry season. Be sure to collect only the dark brown, ripe fruits from the crown of the tree or the ground. Remove the pulp by soaking for 24 hours, then wash over a wire mesh. Spread in a thin layer in an airy, shaded place to dry – but for 4 hours only. The seed does not store so use the fresh seed. Wrapping moist leaves around the seed minimizes moisture loss during temporary transport and storage. Sow directly into the seedbed or pots. Germination takes 6-8 weeks. Uses:

 • Pest repellant: Can repel some pests e.g. aphids, nematodes (those which attack crops) by its smell. Flowers have sufficient nectar and pollen for good bee forage. Produces high quality firewood. 

• Medicine: Liquid extracts from bark are used in the treatment of prostate enlargement. Leaves are used as an inhalant for fever or drank as an infusion to improve appetite. Water is added to pounded bark, and the red liquid is used as a remedy for stomachache; bark extract may be used as a purgative for cattle. 

• Erosion control: Trees can be grown along contour ridges and terraces, provides useful shade and acts as a windbreak. Soil improver and leaves can be used as mulch and green manure.

• Ornamental: It makes an attractive garden shade tree. 

b. Peacock Flower (Albizia gummifera, Kikuyu: Mukurwe) This tree is commonly found in lowland and upland rainforest and in open habitats near forests. Fresh seeds need no pre-treatment. Stored seeds are soaked in warm water and left to cool to room temperature. The seed coat may be nicked at the cotyledon end to hasten germination. Seed germination is good, 70-80%, within 10 days. Seeds should be collected while still on the tree to minimize insect damage. Seed can be stored for at least a year if kept dry and insect free through addition of ash. Uses:

 • Bee-forage, fuel wood, timber, gum, tannin, medicine: Extracts from the crushed pods are taken for stomach pains and the bark decoction for malaria, erosion control (the root system holds soil and prevents gulley erosion).

 • Shade: Nitrogen fixing, improves the soil, and is known as a good mulch tree as leaf litter is abundant during the leaf shedding season.

 • Ornamental (planted in town avenues for its beauty) Time to plant! Try these good indigenous trees. ENGLISH VERSION 4

 • Boundary planting: The leaves quicken the ripening process in bananas. c. Olea Africana (African wild olive, Kikuyu: Mutamaiyu, Kimeru: Muthata) This tree is found in a variety of habitats, usually near water, on stream banks, and also in open woodland. It is resistant to both frost and drought. Fresh seeds are used for sowing, while old seeds can be soaked in cold water for 48 hours. Seeds are often pre-treated by cracking with a hand vice or by rolling a stone over seeds. This is because removing the endocarp can enhance germination. The seeds can be stored at dry room temperature for a few years. Uses: 

• Food: The main olive products are olive oil and edible olives.The plants are much browsed on by livestock as fodder. They are also used or fuel, timber, charcoal, toothbrushes and ornaments. 

• Reclamation: The high drought tolerance suggests that it is a good candidate for reforestation in semi-arid zones of Africa. 

• Ornamental: Olive trees have the capacity to beautify the landscape. d. Waterberry (Syzygium guineense, Kikyuyu: Mukoe, Kimeru: Muriru) 

This tree usually occurs in lowland rain forest and mountain rain forests. It commonly grows in moist conditions, sometimes even in water, and is usually found along streams. Seeds need no presowing treatment, as germination rates are good and uniform. Rates of 80-90% are attained after 20 to 50 days. Direct sowing into pots is recommended. Fruits are perishable, hence should be picked from the ground soon after falling. Shaking the branches with hooks may also collect them.After collection, the fruits should be sown out immediately, as seeds will lose viability if they are dried. If this is not possible, fruit can be stored for a few days in moist sawdust and open containers in well-ventilated rooms. Uses:

 •Bee forage, timber, 

fuel wood, shade, and medicine Note the poisonous bark has been reported to cause human deaths, so advice should be sought from people experienced in using the products for medicine from this tree. e. Melia (Melia volkensii) This termite-resistant tree provides good fodder at the end of the dry season when other fodder may be scarce, and so can be valuable for TIST farmers. The trees, open-crowned, with gray bark, may grow to a height of 6 to 20 meters. Melia is common in in acacia-commiphora bush land with rainfall of 300-800 mm. It sometimes borders seasonal rivers or wetlands or appears on rock outcrops. It sheds its leaves twice a year, and can be a good choice to plant along with crops. Melia is often started from wildlings or root cuttings, though root cuttings may produce an unstable tree. If grown from seed, the seed should be scarified using fire (fast fires or dry grass dung) or the seed coat nicked and then seeds soaked in water for 6 hours before planting. Uses:

 • Provides excellent fodder for goats and cattle; timber and beehives. 

• Leaf preparations are used as flea and fly repellents and are said to be particularly effective on goat kids. 

• Serves as a good agroforestry tree. ENGLISH VERSION 5 B iodiversity—the richness and variety of nature is essential to a healthy environment. Variety is especially important for responding to change and challenges, like drought, pests, or climate change. Since biodiversity is so important, you might think that people everywhere are working to make sure we protect and preserve this natural richness. 

However, each day, because of our human actions, we are losing species and genetic diversity as forests are cut, wetlands are drained, and resources are over-exploited. We see this loss every day. Think of how many kinds of plants, birds, and animals that you saw often when you or your parents were young but that are rare or gone today? There are nine million different species of organisms on our planet, and when we destroy them, it is a permanent loss for each of the seven billion people who share this planet, for our children, and for their children. TIST farmers are making a difference, working to preserve this rich diversity. Each tree we plant is an important renewable resource. Each tree we plant reduces pressure on natural, diverse forest since we can use it instead of cutting forests for fuel wood, timber, and other products. When we plant indigenous trees, as many groups have in riparian buffer groves and thousands of TIST farmers have on their farms, we directly protect biodiversity. These diverse indigenous trees also provide habitat and food for insects, birds, and animals, many of which are important for pollinating our crops, eating pests, or keeping our soil healthy. TIST farmers are also sharing their knowledge about biodiversity. Farmers are being interviewed in clusters in a pilot project to share information about biodiversity in their areas. When we learn more about the plants and animals around us, the changes in these areas, and the threats to this diversity, we can take action to preserve this amazing resource. Let’s all come together, and share our knowledge, and plant indigenous trees to make a better world for all. Strength in diversity: TIST protects biodiversity. Leadership and Governance in your Cluster. T oday, TIST has more than 170 active Clusters. In each Cluster, Servant Leaders support our success and share their strengths. Each Cluster has governance and leadership as follows: Cluster Leadership

. • Cluster Leader. 

• Cluster Co-leader. • Cluster Accountability person. Cluster Leaders, Co-leaders, and Accountability people serve for a period of 4 months. After 4 months of service, the Cluster leader rotates out. The Co-leader becomes the Leader while the Accountability person becomes the Co-leader. Your Cluster should democratically elect a new Accountability person. Cluster elections are important and mandatory for all TIST Clusters. Roles of Cluster Leadership. Roles of a Leader.

Ukurasa 5 Inside: East Africa TIST Participants during a joint seminar held at Gitoro Conference Center, Meru in October 2015 KISWAHILI VERSION 2 K ujengana ni sehemu muhimu sana ya mikutano yenu ya vikundi vidogo ya kila wiki. Katika Waefeso 4:15,16 inasema kwamba tunafaa Kujengana hadi ukamilifu wa Kristo . Kila mtu katika kikundi kidogo chako cha TIST huleta vipaji na vipawa vyake mwenyewe katika kundi zima. Jambo moja la kuajabisha ambalo hutokea katika kikundi ni kule kutambua , kuchangia na kutumia vipaji hivyo mlivyopewa na Mungu . Kujengana ni njia ya kufanya vipaji na vipawa hivyo vionekane na vitumike. Kuna sehemu mbili katika kujengana: • Kabla ya sala ya kufunga kikao, kila mtu katika kikundi hutaja kitu kimoja maalum cha kujenga ambacho mwezeshaji alikifanya wakati wa mkutano huo. Kwa mfano, alitabasamu, aliutunza muda, alitengeneza mipango mizuri, aliwahamasisha wanakikundi kutoa mawazo, alinisalimu na kunifanya nijisikie vizuri, alitaja kitu kilichokuwa kikiendelea vizuri sana katika kikao, au katika kazi kikundi kilichokuwa kikifanya , na kadhalika. Kila mwanachama anahitaji kusema kitu tofauti. Hii si hiari. Kila mmoja anamjenga mwezeshaji. Baadhi ya makundi pia hutoa Kujengana kwa kiongozi mwenza . • Aidha , kama mtu ameona kipawa katika mwezeshaji, mwanakikundi pia anaweza kukitaja. 

Katika uwezeshaji au uongozi wa mzunguko , kila juma mwezeshaji mpya atapata kujengwa. Kupitia Kujengana , sisi hutia moyo kila mmoja katika mambo mazuri ambayo kiongozi wa wiki alifanya katika kikao na vipaji alivyoonyesha. Kujengana pia ni njia tunayotumia kujifunza kuona mambo mazuri kuhusu watu na kisha kuyasema. Sisi wote tuna haja kufunza ndimi zetu kusema mambo mazuri. Aidha, kikundi kizima hujifunza nini kikundi hicho kinachukuwa ikiwa muhimu katika mwezeshaji . Viongozi wajao watafaidika kutokana na walichokisikia katika Kujengana kuhusu wawezeshaji waliopita na kujua nini kikundi ufikiri ni muhimu katika kiongozi mtumishi. Baada ya taarifa ya kila mwanachama wa kundi iliyo maalum na nzuri, Kiongozi husema,“Asante”. Hakuna mjadala kuhusu jinsi gani kungekuwa bora, au tofauti. Mara nyingi, mtu hufurahia anapoambiwa mambo mema kuhusu alivyofanya wakati wa mkutano. Wakati mwingine sisi hujifunza mambo kuhusu sisi wenyewe ambayo hatukujua ! Kujengana humsaidia mwezeshaji siku hiyo kutambua vipaji vyake na kuendelea kuvitumia . Kujengana pia husaidia kikundi kidogo kwa sababu wanakikundi wote huboresha uongozi wao jinsi wanavyojifunza . Kujengana ni baraka mara mbili! Kujengana: Usikose baraka kwa ajili ya Kikundi na cluster yako. KISWAHILI VERSION 3 Wakati wa Kupanda! Jaribu miti hii mizuri ya Kiasili. M iti ya kiasili ni aina ya miti ambayo imekua ndani ya Africa na inayofaana na mazingira ambayo imekulia. Yaweza kuboresha udongo na kukuvutia ndege na wadudu wenye manufaa. Miti tofauti humea vizuri zaidi katika maeneo tofauti. Kutokana na Semina za TIST na mikutano ya cluster, wahusika wa TIST wamebainisha aina nyingi za miti ya kiasili ambazo ni nzuri sana na zenye faida katika maeneo yao. Baadhi ya aina hizi zimeelezwa hapa chini, na tunashukuru Kituo cha dunia mzima cha kilimo cha Mseto (World Agroforestry Centre) kwa sababu ya maelezo kuhusu faida na ukusanyaji na maandalizi ya mbegu ili kufanikiwa. Tafadhali fikiria kupanda baadhi ya aina hizi msimu ujao wa kupanda, na utuambie baadhi ya aina bora zaidi katika eneo lako! a. Prunus africana (Kikuyu: Muiri, Kimeru: Mweria) Mti huu wa kiasili unapatikana sana katika hifadhi za misitu. Mbegu zipo misituni wakati wa kiangazi. Kusanya tu matunda yaliyoiva ya hudhurungi kutoka taji la mti ama ardhini. Toa rojo kwa kulowesha masaa ishirini na nne, kisha uoshe juu ya waya wenye matundu. Eneza kwa safu nyembamba katika eneo lililo na hewa na lililo na kivuli ili kukauka- lakini kwa masaa nne pekee. Mbegu haikai kwa hivyo tumia mbegu mpya. Kufungia majani yakizunguka mbegu hupunguza upotevu wa unyevu wakati wa kusafirisha na kuweka. Panda kitaluni au mifukoni moja kwa moja. Kuota huchukua wiki sita kufika nane. Matumizi: • Dawa ya kukimbiza wadudu waharibifu: yaweza kukimbiza wadudu waharibifu kama chawa, viwavi(ambao hushambulia mimea) kwa harufu yake. Maua yana nta na poleni tosha ya kulisha nyuki. Ina kuni bora. • Dawa: Rojo kutoka kwa gome hutumiwa kutibu uvimbe wa kibofu. Majani hutumiwa kuvuta ili kutibu homa ama kunywa kama njia ya kuboresha hamu ya kula. Maji huongezwa kwa gome lililopondwa na maji hayo mekundu kutumiwa kutibu maumivu ya tumbo; dondoo la gome kutumiwa kulisha ng’ombe. • Kuzuia mmomonyoko wa udongo: Miti yaweza kupandwa matutani, huwa na kivuli chenye manufaa na huzuia upepo. Huboresha udongo. Majani yaweza kutumiwa kufunika udongo ama kama mbolea. 

• Urembo: Huwa mti mzuri wa kivuli unaovutia katika bustani. b. Peacock Flower (Albizia gummifera, Kikuyu: Mukurwe) Mti huu hupatikana sanasana katika misitu ya mvua iliyo mahali tambarare au nyanda za juu na katika makazi wazi karibu na misitu. Mbegu safi hazihitaji kutibiwa kwanza. Mbegu zilizowekwa huloweshwa katima maji yenye joto na kuachwa kupata baridi kwenye joto la kawaida. Gome la mbegu laweza kuvunjwa ili kuharakisha kuota. Mbegu huota vizuri, asilimia sabini kufika themanini katika siku kumi. Mbegu zafaa kukusanywa zikiwa bado mtini ili kupunguza uharibifu wa wadudu. Mbegu yaweza kuwekwa kwa muda wa mwaka mmoja ikiwekwa ikiwa kavu na mbali na wadudu kwa njia ya kuongeza majivu. Matumizi: • Chakula cha nyuki, kuni, mbao, gundi, tanini, dawa (dondoo kutokana na kuponda maganda hutumiwa kumaliza uchungu wa tumbo na maji ya gome kutibu malaria), kuzuia mmomonyoko wa udongo (mizizi hushika udongo na kuzuia mmonyoko wa udongo kupitia mitaro), • Kivuli,kuweka naitrojeni (huboresha udongo), hujulikana kama mti mzuri wa kufunika udongo kwa sababu majani yanayoanguka ni mengi wakati wa msimu wa kuangusha majani, KISWAHILI VERSION 4 • Urembo (Hupandwa katika miji kwa sababu ya urembo wake), • Kupanda mipaka, matawi huharakisha kuiva kwa ndizi. c. Olea africana (African wild olive, Kikyuyu: Mutamaiyu, Kimeru: Muthata) Mti huu hupatikana maeneo mengi, sana sana karibu na maji, mito na ata maporini. Ni sugu kwa baridi na kwa ukavu. Mbegu kutoka kwa matunda hutumika kuotesha. Mbegu nzee yaweza kuloweshwa kwa maji baridi kwa masaa arobaini na nane. Mbegu sanasana hutibiwa kwa kuvunja na kifaa au kwa kuachilia jiwe juu ya mbegu. Hii ni kwa sababu kutoa ngozi ya ndani ya mbegu husaidia kuota haraka. Mbegu huwekwa mahali pakavu na penye joto la kawaida kwa miaka michache. Matumizi: Chakula: Bidhaa kuu ya mzeituni ni mafuta na matunda yanayoliwa. Lishe: mimea hii huliwa na mifugo. Hutumika pia kama kuni, mbao, makaa, miswaki ya meno na kurembesha. Kuimarisha: kuwa sugu kwa ukavu inapendekeza kuwa mti huu waweza kutumika kuimarisha maeneo Africa yenye ukame. Kurembesha: mzeituni huweza kurembesha ardhi/mazingira. d. Waterberry (Syzygium guineense, Kikyuyu: Mukoe, Kimeru: Muriru) Mti huu sana sana hupatikana misitu iliyo kwa tambarare na iliyo milimani. Hukua sana mahali penye unyevu, mara nyingine ndani ya maji na hupatikana kando ya mito Mbegu hazihitaji kutibiwa, kwani huota haraka na vizuri. Huota kwa asilimia themanini kufika tisini kwa siku za kwanza ishirini hadi hamsini. Kuotesha mifukoni hupendekezwa. Matunda huharibika kwa yanafaa kuokotwa mara moja yakishaanguka. Yanaweza pia kwa kutikisa matawi. Ukishakusanya, matunda yanafaa kuoteshwa mara moja kwani yanaweza kupoteza uwezo wake wa kuota yakikauka; kama ili haliwezekani, matunda yanaweza kuwekwa kwa siku chache kwa machujo ya mbao na ndani ya mikebe kwa chumba chenye kuingiza hewa tosha. Matumizi: 

Chakula (Matunda), lishe ya nyuki, mbao, kuni/makaa, kivuli, dawa(tunda utumika kutibu ugonjwa wa kuhara damu, maji ya gome nayo hutumika kuzuia ugonjwa wa kuhara). Kumbuka gome ili lenye sumu limeripotiwa kuua watu, kwa hivyo tafuta ujumbe tosha kwa watu wenye uzoefu wa kutumia bidhaa za huu mti. e. Melia (Melia volkensii) Mti huu usioliwa na mchwa ni chakula kizuri cha mifugo mwishoni mwa msimu wa kiangazi wakati vyakula vingine vinapopatikana kwa ugumu na kwa hivyo ni wenye umuhimu kwa wakulima wa TIST. Miti hii, ina taji lililofunguka, iliyo na gome la kijivu, yaweza kukua hadi urefu wa mita sita kufika ishirini. Melia ni mti unaoonekana sanasana katika vichaka vya acacia-commiphora iliyo na mvua wa milimita mia tatu kufika mia nane. Wakati mwingine inapakana na mito ya kimsimu ama mahali majimaji au kuonekana juu ya mawe yaliyotokea juu ya ardhi. Mti huu huangusha majani mara mbili kwa mwaka na waweza kuwa chaguo nzuri la kupanda pamoja na mimea Melia sana sana hukuzwa kutokana na miche iliyomea yenyewe au mizizi ikiwa imekatwa, ata kama mizizi iliyokatwa yaweza kukuza miti isiyo na nguvu. Ikikuzwa kutokana na mbegu, mbegu yafaa kuchomwa (moto wa kasi au wa nyasi iliyokauka) ama gome la mbegu linatobolewa halafu mbegu inaloweshwa majini kwa muda wa masaa sita kabla ya kupanda. Matumizi: • Chakula kizuri kwa mbuzi na ng’ombe; mbao; mizinga • Majani hutengenezwa na kutumiwa kuwafukuza chawa na nzi na husemekana kuwa nzuri zaidi kwa watoto wa mbuzi. • Mti mzuri wa kutumika katika kilimo mseto. KISWAHILI VERSION 5 B ionuwai—utajiri na aina mbali mbali za maumbile—ni muhimu kwa mazingira yenye afya.Aina mbali mbali ni muhimu sana kwa kubaliana na mabadiliko na changamoto, kama ukame, wadudu na mabadiliko ya tabia nchi. Kwa sababu bionuwai ni muhimu sana, waweza kufikiria kuwa watu kila mahali wanafanya kazi kuhakikisha kuwa tunalinda na kuhifadhi utajiri huu wa kiasili. Hata hivyo, kila siku, kwa sababu ya matendo ya binadamu, tunapoteza spici na aina za maumbile misitu inapokatwa, ardhi pevu kukaushwa na rasilimali kutumiwa kupita kiasi. Tunaona upotevu huu kila siku. Fikiria ni aina ngapi za mimea, ndege na wanyama ambazo uliona mara nyingi wakati wewe au wazazi wako walipokuwa wachanga lakini leo ni chache au zimeisha? Kuna spici milioni tisa za viumbile tofauti katika sayari yetu, na tunapoziharibu, 

ni hasara ya kudumu kwa kila mmoja wa watu bilioni saba wanaogawana hii sayari, kwa watoto wetu na kwa watoto wao. Wakulima katika TIST wanaleta mabadiliko, wakifanya kazi kuhifadhi utajiri huu wa kiaina. Kila mti tunaopanda ni asilimali inayoweza kutumika tena na tena. Kila mti tunaopanda hupunguza shinikizo kwa misitu ya kiasili yenye aina mbalimbali kwa sababu twaweza kuitumia badala ya kukata misitu ili kupata kuni, mbao na bidhaa zingine. Tunapopanda miti ya kiasili, kama vikundi vingi vilivyofanya katika mashamba yaliyo kando ya mito na vijito na maelfu ya wakulima wa TIST waaliyonayo katika mashamba yao, tunalinda bionuwai moja kwa moja.Aina hizi nyingi za miti ya kiasili pia huwapa wadudu, ndege na wanyama makazi na chakula, wengi wa wale ni muhimu katika kuchavua mimea yetu, kuwala wadudu waharibifu au kuweka udongo ukiwa na afya. Wakulima katika TIST pia wanagawana maarifa kuhusu bionuwai. Wakulima wanaulizwa maswali katika cluster katika mpango wa kuanzisha wa kugawana habari kuhusu bionuwai katika maeneo yao. Tunaposoma mengine kuhusu mimea na wanyama wanaotuzunguka, mabadiliko katika maeneo haya na hatari dhidi ya wingi wa aina, twaweza kuchukua hatua kuhifadhi rasilimali hii ya kuajabisha. Tujeni sote pamoja, na tugawane maarifa tuliyonayo, na tupande miti ya kiasili ili kuwe na dunia bora kwetu sote. Nguvu katika Utofauti: TIST hulinda bionuwai. T IST ina zaidi ya cluster mia moja sitini. Katika kila cluster, viongozi watumishi husaidia katika mafanikio yetu na hugawana nguvu zao nasi. Kila cluster inaa utawala na uongozi kama ifuatavyo: Viongozi wa cluster waliochaguliwa, • Kiongozi wa cluster • Msaidizi wa kiongozi katika cluster 

• Mwajibikaji wa cluster Cluster elections are important and mandatory for all TIST Clusters. Kiongozi, msaidizi wake na mwajibikaji wa cluster hutumika katika kila nafasi kwa muda wa miezi mine. Baada ya miezi mine ya kutumika, kiongozi wa cluster hutoka uongozini. Msaidizi wake huingia kuwa kiongozi naye Mwajibikaji huwa msaidizi wa kiongozi. Wanawake na wanaume huzungukana katika uchaguzi- kama mwajibikaji ni mwanamume, huyo mwingine atakuwa mwanamke. Cluster yako yafaa kuchagua mwajibikaji mpya kwa njia ya kidemokrasia. Uchaguzi wa cluster ni muhimuna wa lazima kwa cluster zote za TIST. Majukumu ya viongozi wa cluster. Majukumu ya kiongozi. 1. Anafaa kuwa mtumishi wa cluster yote na kuonyesha maadili ya TIST.
