The resturant and kitchen of group owned entreprise is inagurated today
Dear Friends,
Some photograph of how was it today.
The President JSIA, inagurated the facility and all of us including the large local group had lunch there.
We have also got some local products for them to sell there. One such product" Rishabh Bhujia" , the dealership of was give to them and the local girls slod the packets, to tourists for about 2 hours , with the lady who is making this product. The girls standing here are fresh and have not come out of their house till date for any work.
There are other products like Jharcraft products, herbal beauty products which are made locally and their representatives were there to discuss their products with local people.
We are sure that local girls and boys will sell these products to tourists and will run Resturant and kitchen for their benifits now.
It will be a mile stone in the Jharkhand tourism sector, as rural group is setting up their own enterprise, without any big corporate help or Govt help.
This project will give strength to our concept of rural community owned enerprise for self employment in tourism sector.

All best,
Jane
You'll be happy to know that now I'm making a documentary on a tribal fair organised by an NGO with the participation of the artisans from Saraikela-Kharsawan.

I am not currently working in India, just the one project in Uganda. Once I get this going, I would be happy to try something in India. Let's stay in touch and connect on DC. Keep me posted on what you are up to.
Best,
Genice
that?
in response to your question, yes you have a right to be cynical in terms of how business views its involvement with local communities. No one can deny the fact that the main objective of business is maximazation of profit often to the detriment of the local population, especially when it comes to emerging markets where regulation is less observed. But having worked over the past 15 years closely with several corporates and government bodies, there is a large number of them that see a strong connection between their economic growth and their reputation. So it is this concern for the reputation of the company that gives the opportunity for more sustainable practices that favour the local communities to be established. That has always been the way I have tried to advice and persuade companies to act in more responsible manner, that at the end of the day it's for their benefit to support local communities.
I am not claiming that everyone does that but there is a shift in the organisational behaviour of corporates.
I hope this is helpful, feel free to comment....

thank you very much for your letter of interest, although I am sorry to have to tell you that for the moment we are only working to build up base projects in a few african countries, we do not have the resources for more right now. But it is not a no - so please keep in touch, there might be opportunities later on.
