Participating in the Annual Farmer-to-Farmer Implementers Meeting in Raleigh, North Carolina
Here is what I consider a joyful and fulfilling week: 80 or so people gathered from around the world to consider together wide-ranging issues in relation to supporting expert volunteers, for instance how they, cooperatives, and societies may successfully develop the agricultural sector, and all the while discovering co-participants who are wonderful, generous, experienced, and dedicated to serving most vulnerable groups.That in a nutshell was the beautiful time I spent at the Farmer-to-Farmer Implementers Meeting last week in Raleigh, North Carolina. For that memorable experience we (myself and HAF colleague Aissa Azzouzi) thank USAID and Partners of the Americas for the invitation to not just observe but also to contribute to such an important and informative gathering. We gained excellent ideas and eagerness to implement them alongside the team of the High Atlas Foundation in Morocco
