My E-notes!

Gender Mainstreaming Strategy and Knowledge Management Strategy are two most important documents in CARLEP, complying the requirement of IFAD and also recognizing its due importance in the field.  To draft/develop these two Strategies, a write-shop was organized from 12-18 th December, 2016 by CARLEP at Lingmethang, Mongar, calling in the participants from the six Eastern Dzongkhags from Agriculture and Livestock sector. Representatives from RLDC, ARDC and RAMCO also attended making the total participants to about 40 heads. The session was facilitated by the Resource person from NCWC, PPD of MoAF, OPM and ARDC.
