In order to ensure full participation of the Bamum community at home and abroad (some Bamum language, script, and computer experts are based in Europe and in other parts of Africa: Libya and Senegal) as well as international experts on the Bamum language, script, and Unicode encoding, the Bamum Scripts and Archives Project will seek to identify financial sponsors to make it possible for as many people as possible to attend the Foumban conference.  The BSAP would be grateful for any ideas on sponsorship for this important conference.
