Workshops

AFTERNOON WORKSHOPS AND EVENING PRESENTATIONS

ECHO forums are considered networking opportunities. This means that you, the delegates, are the most important resources. Please don’t be shy about suggesting topics for a practical presentation during the afternoon sessions. At ECHO conferences in other locations around the world, some delegates have discussed a project that has worked well, a “good idea” and why it failed, a promising plant, how they integrate agricultural work with church activities, etc. If you are interested in offering an afternoon workshop (45 min) please contact Mr. GOUBA ALAIN at: agouba@echonet. Evenings will be reserved for individual networking opportunities.

There will be extensive opportunities for networking with fellow forum participants and resource persons.

POST-FORUM TOURS

Post forum tours, to be offered on March 27, are currently being explored and more information will be forthcoming. Our hope is to offer excellent examples of sustainable agriculture, appropriate technology and outreach to the poor through these tours. Forum participants will be asked to sign up for their tour preference during check-in on March 23. An additional fee will apply.
