Getting Official


Today we met with Do and Mike (Madison Quakers) and the Vice Chairman of the Women's Union to discuss the Microfinance program the MQI is managing in QuangNgai Provinance. The Women's Union is dedicated to improving living conditions for women in the poorest provinances and Quang Ngai is still one of the poorest. We will have further meetings with the Women's Union as well as with Ministry of Education officials in at the local level. They naturally want to keep track of what international groups are doing and figure out ways to leverage programs and align them with their internal goals.
