Day 2 HiveMind

 Today the team met with diplomats from both the French and Belgian Embassy’s to discuss the role of foreign entities operating within Rwanda. The discussion ranged from how France invests development aid in Rwanda to how private businesses work with government entities. Rose from E&E Green Farms seed company gave a presentation on her company's mission, goals, and processes. The team also engaged with the U.S. Embassy and USAID for a short meeting and was able to learn more about current development projects happening in Rwanda. It was a great day for the team to better understand how different government entities could help with promoting sustainable beekeeping in Rwanda. 

After the work was complete the team was able to get out and do some shopping in Kigali and see more of the city. We are looking forward to getting out into the field and learning from the beekeeping cooperatives.
