Core
Participation in the Countrywide Events

Core participants presented high profile talks and
exhibits at all the Countrywide Events |
FORMAT recruited several
innovators to serve as a group of 13 “core” participants to contribute to
the presentations and exhibits during the Countrywide Events.
First, this group was invited to prepare high profile presentations and
exhibits, and then provided with means to attend each of the eight
events. They presented talks and exhibits in their respective areas of
specialization that range from soil fertility management, value-added
processing and the use of traditional plants. The contributions from this
group backstopped the efforts of many local organizers and gave each of
the events a national outlook. In addition, these participants distributed
samples and information, including reprints from the FORMAT book “Organic
Resource Management in Kenya”.
Below are summaries
of their
contributions.
