Great Video!

Check out this story about Epiphanie Mukashyaka. Coffee co-operative owner.

Our topic

Focus: Production, domestic and international trade, and consumption of Rwanda’s two most important export crops, coffee and tea.

Potential features and topics:

• Organization of coffee and tea production (Who owns the land? Who provides the inputs? Who does the different work? Who profits?)

• Trade practices (Who buys the coffee? Who buys the tea?)
• International marketing (How does Rwandan coffee and tea find its way to your breakfast table?)
• Environmental impacts, sustainability, and fair trade

Ideas...

I think looking at the SPREAD website will help us a lot. There are many directions we can take our topic and I think this site might give us specific ideas and lines of inquiry to follow up on in Rwanda.
