We have two sections in this article that are grouped by country. I suggest to rework them both and possibly delete them both. Or if not delete then merge them together. I don't know what the section "Organisations and program" is trying to do - looks just like an arbitrary list of links to me. Or should they be under "see also"? Or in a navbox? We should have more prose in the article and less lists. EMsmile (talk) 03:18, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've re-arranged the country section and have removed the "organisations and program" section (moved some links, deleted some). Probably still too many links lists. EMsmile (talk) 08:08, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
