Interview with Rafael Flor:

“Integrated rural development approach has the handicap
that you get over surveyed because every sector (health, education, nutrition,
infrastructure, agriculture, …) want to be captured for its impact”

"Thank you also for the productive working meeting. As discussed during the meeting and now that potential areas have been identified, it would be good to continue working, via email, on defining objectives, mechanisms and next steps."
