At project field level such include, brick-making, chicken farming, vegetable and fruit marketing, bee-keeping, English teaching, paper-flower making, paid health services subsidizing those for poor, handicrafts, education,volunteer tourism and micro-credit schemes At the donor level there are programs involving direct sales, with charitable spin-off, real estate schemes with charitable components, and sale of imported art goods with profits returning to projects.
Representatives involved in all the above ideas and programs will be at the seminar, and countries involved include, Uganda, Vietnam, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, and Canada.
