The NSRL/WISHH team joined our friends at CARE to discuss collaboration and partnership opportunities. We see great potential in working together to gain even greater impact in Honduras and Guatemala. The CARE team had kindly arranged a day of discussion with their team at their offices in Tegucigalpa. It was excellent to see the work they are doing and the results they are accomplishing.
We look forward to working together in the upcoming year on several efforts in the region.
After the meeting we said good bye to Jim Hershey and Nathan Ruby from WISHH and WSF as they headed home to the U.S.
Viji and I then worked on follow up items from the travel and we enjoyed a quick visit to the nearby Mall to pick up additional cellular minutes for Viji's mobile phone. It is Saturday night and it was fun to see all the people shopping and enjoying a night out.
We returned to the hotel to pack and arm wrestle with the NSRL display to contain it in its travel case and I am now ready to NSRL. Viji and Courtney will travel tomorrow to Nicaragua with our friends from Andifar Labs to the boarder where they will be met by our partners at the Fabretto Childrens Foundation. The team will then travel to Cusmapa to continue putting the details in place to begin our early childhood nutrition project.
It has been a successful and full visit to Central America and we are eager to continue the momentum gained from our time in the region. We look forward to continuing to positively impact the nutritonal needs in Guatemala and Honduras.
