[Dialogue] [globaltoptrainers] microentrepreneurship

[Lawrence Philbrook]

Janet Sanders, Tatwa Tatsima and the team from ICA Nepal have been 
working for several years on micro-credit with the Jean Houston 
Foundation.  Evelyn in April was at one of the programs but the program 
has been ongoing combining Jean's work with ours to build a community 
leadership framework to support the program.

With respect, Larry
