Harvesting Workshop

At this workshop we brainstormed ways to ensure successful project implementation that empowers the local community and government officials. By exchanging knowledge, resources, and skills among field staff and head office staff, we can implement the project activities successfully. This workshop initiative aspires to harvest knowledge among all the CREWSnet project employees so that together all the employees who are involved in the project can work to implement the project activities successfully.
