For two weeks over winter break, we traveled around Vietnam and Cambodia on a study tour organized by Heifer International, a rural development charity that we have been supporting for some years. In this talk, we will, a) explain Heifer's history and current activities, b) describe where we went and what we did, and c) tell you our personal experiences of and thoughts on rural development. We plan to speak and show slides for approximately thirty minutes, after which we hope for an interesting discussion.
