July Preparatory Trip for 2010 Team

The Team Monterey El Salvador 2010 leadership just returned from a wonderful 5-day trip to the Bajo Lempa of El Salvador to meet with the newly formed working board of Asociación Mangle.  The purpose of the trip was to introduce the team leadership to Mangle’s new board and to learn more about their program priorities so that Team Monterey may select projects that are most effective for the duration of the practicum.

Potential projects for 2010 include feasibility studies for the organization of local farmers markets, providing workshops on increasing the organizational capacity of Asociación Mangle, evaluating infrastructure projects and their effects on public health and the direct incorporation of Salvadoran youth in the design of survey tools and the subsequent collection and analysis of data.  This is just a sample list of the topics that were discussed and there are many other areas that the leadership will consider in selecting appropriate projects.
