The course will be held on Thursday, 4th July 2002 and will begin at 10.30 a.m. The venue is the Department of Science, Technology & Environment, Opp. Saligao Seminary, Saligao, which is supporting the programme. The morning session will be devoted to presentations made by two earthworm specialists who are actually working on the use of earthworms for processing domestic waste. After lunch, the participants will be taken to earthworm bins already in operation in Mapusa, Parra and Panaji. The visit is to demonstrate that the design of earthworm bins has been standardised and their operation is without any nuisance to the surrounding environments. The course will terminate after the visit to the Panaji earthworm bins. There will be no course fee but a registration fee of Rs.50 will be charged, which will be used largely for providing simple lunch and tea to the participants. The fee can be paid at the venue itself. Those who wish to register for the course should contact Nancy de Souza at the Goa Foundation on 263305/256479. Due to space restraints, the number is being restricted to the first 30 persons only. ---------------------------------------------------------- Goa Foundation Press Release 30.6.2002 ------------------------------------------------- ======================================= GOA DESC RESOURCE CENTRE Documentation + Education + Solidarity 11 Liberty Apts., Feira Alta, Mapusa, Goa 403 507 Tel: 252660 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Working On Issues Of Development & Democracy ======================================= =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-W-E-B---S-I-T-E-=-=-= To Subscribe/Unsubscribe from GoaNet | http://www.goacom.com/goanet =================================================================== For (un)subscribing or for help, Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dont want so many e=mails?
