21. HowdoesCommunities of
theEarthcreate prosperity?
It has TWO TOOLS:
1. Inclussive business methodology – that coaches and
incubates rural groups (especially of women) to become
rural businesses, that then become part of the WAKAMI
VALUE EXPORT CHAIN, having access to income.
2. Wakami Village Methodology – that creates a
platform where communities with income, have access
to products and services that change their lives!!!
