Dear all,

Since we are all interested in capacity development please take a look at this website. It's a firm in Accra, Ghana that offers capacity development solutions to the public and private sector in different fields such as public finance management, oil & gas, governance, leadership etc.

Dear All

There are certainly some very interesting discussions here - particularly poignant to the world we now live in. I would like to add another...

I spent much of my career in the UK working in Domestic Abuse. Since returning home to Ireland I have been appalled at the lack of awareness, general discussion and government strategy on this very senstive yet dangerous and criminal matter. I am setting up my own business at the moment and one of the strands is indeed Domestic Abuse. I have a particular passion for highlighting that women are not the only victims - in fact, as many men are victims as women and often the abuse men suffer is much more emotional, verbal and mental thus the damage can be suffered longerterm.

I would be interested in hearing from any of you who have views, opinions and expereinces in this field.

Best wishes and thank you,
Trudi

Hello all....

I was hoping you could help vote for my (socially responsible) agro development project which I have just registered as a contestant of the IdeaBlob contest. This encompasses a framework for sustainable economic development by enhancing the technical capacity of rural farmers. This is a chance for the Backpack Farm to win 10,000 USD. The money doesn't go into our pockets. Instead, the money will be used to launch a demo farm of the project in Nanyuki, Kenya directly impacting the incomes of local farmers while helping to prove our business model building sustainable food production in Africa by empowering rural farmers as entrepreneurs rather than aid recipients.

http://www.ideablob.com/ideas/5820-Backpack-Farm-Program-African

This competition only last one week, so please take a minute and vote. Please forward this e-mail to friends and colleagues!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for your support!

Dear Noel and all members of this group, I have seen and experienced the beauty and deep impact of values-based holistic community development among rural poor families in Orissa, India. The program had immense scope of experiments in trying new ways of capacity building among the poor families through people's institution strengthening, personal leadership development, values inculcation, co-mentoring and co-learning. I hope to learn from the varied experiences of members here and I'd be glad to contribute if people may discuss the above concepts at length.

Hi Greg. Thanks for sharing the link to you site. It looks very interesting. One of the issues in India where most of the poor have limited land is that when they grow cash crops (including bio fuels) they compromise their own food security. I am ta…
