My flights home were fine - just very long 32+ hours. I am finally getting back on local time.
This was one of the best projects that I have worked on because it went so far to implementation. The Cooperative is 95% of the way to Warehouse Receipt Process Completion which will allow the farmer - the Cooperative - the Provincial Government - and the bank to work for the betterment of the community. At the last meeting, there were over 25 farmers present who all supported the efforts of the Board of Directors.
The Board has now authorized monthly meetings, open to membership, and minutes will be posted. This transparency is very new and will require some adjustments on everyone's part.
I am very anxious to return to Tanzania - and hope that I can contribute my knowledge of this Process to other Cooperatives.
Have a great summer. I will be spending 6 weeks in Michigan training for RMA.
