On Deck: India Teams for 2009

Now that we've been back from our latest round of experimental community development initiatives with our staff, friends and partners in India, many people have been asking the question:  "Now what? What's on deck?  What are we doing next?  When are we going back?" 

So, on March 18th, from 8 - 9pm (in the Great Room on the GCC Campus), we'll be putting the "Now What" on the flight deck at our India Team Informational Meeting, and i have to say that i'm really excited about what is coming up next!

For starters, we now have enough good data about what has been working well to roll out fairly comprehensive plans in three village communities in India, with long term plans to impact each in much the same way that we have been working here locally at Monroe Circle.   We will be sending teams to do a variety of things, therefore, in those contexts, and the purpose of the meeting will be to give participants everything they need to know about dates, mission objectives, costs, training parameters and support.  If you're interested in hearing more about what's going on next in India, or are thinking about being part of a GCC team, i'd encourage you to come!  See you there!
