[Digestion] biodigester construction in Bolivia (Video)

Tue Apr 22 15:52:10 CDT 2008

Hi Davaa
In spain we say that "the issues of royal palace go slowly". That is my situation now with the translation of the design guide and manual about familiar biodigesters.
I have ready the final document in spanish, but we are waiting to make it in a book format. Once the spanish document is publish i hope next moth have the English version.
About the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Sl0XEN5Bgo
Now I am in Spain, and will try to share it by FTP or some else with the web server of the University im working with.
I will share this news with the list

Sorry Davaa to be late because we told moths ago to have all this issues ready soon. Sorry.

Now i will begin to write a pepaer about the bolivian experience in social strategy to introduce appropriates technologies (biodigesters and improved stoves)
we Keep in contact
Jaime

> The sound of the video is only music.
