Accomplished through: 1) Individual dialogue sessions and facilitation of programs to clarify reasons for the merger without acrimony. Personal sharing and providing open space for expressing concerns facilitated healing and moving ahead. This was an opportunity for the new M.D. from outside the company to clarify his assignment from head office which enabled understanding of the need for an outsider style. We later facilitated a program including expat sales & marketing people and the local support team who were able to respect each other's contribution in a new way. We were able to go beyond the expats doing all the talking and local people keeping their head down; everyone contributed. ICA Taiwan (antiD) </textarea></td>

It is located in a dry region of Guatemala, and its development is even slower that other local areas. Key to the success of this area is the education of rural women, providing outreach to those who cannot travel to programs normally offered in distant cities. Consequently the village training center is being renovated and expanded, and furnished with appropriate training materials and equipment. This center serves citizens of 25 surrounding villages, and also invites participants from Central America. Taught at this center is literacy, health and sanitation, organic farming, reforestation, and the training of teachers. Villagers use the center for making community plans and for exchange programs. Women will be trained to assist in educating their children, and to prepare for taking leadership roles in their family and community. </textarea></td>

The 2014 Solar Launch and Uptown Share Fair was a great launch of these efforts.
Another event designed to help build ICA GreenRise as a accessible community space was a CSLN Hub event in March. The event showcased the GreenRise building, screened two separate films as part of the One Earth Film Festival (more on page 5), and finished the day with mini-workshops for hands-on learning.
In addition to single day events, this January ICA convened a cohort comprised of ICA GreenRise tenants, residents, and Uptown community members to discuss ways to build community around health and wellness. The group named itself ‘Nourish Yourself, Your Community’ and co-created a 6 month health and wellness curriculum led by cohort members.
Topics in the curriculum included stress management, meditation, pickling and sprouting, creative storytelling, and intro to improv, to name a few. The project, supported by a small grant from Thorek Memorial Hospital, aims to create a space for individuals to learn more about each other and exchange strategies to help serve themselves and the community more effectively. When the cohort concludes in June, the ICA GreenRise aims to continue to build on the community momentum as a north side sustainability hub. ICA staff and volunteers are currently in the planning process for the first official GreenRise Community Sustainability Hub Day, slated for June 20th. </textarea></td>
