Project to promote private enterprise in southern Africa. The project's first (and, as far as can be determined, only) activity is a grant to Appropriate Technology International (ATI) to partially fund the U.S. pavilion at the Rural Development Technology Exhibit in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, in September 1982. The pavilion will exhibit technologies and services provided by 12-15 U.S. companies and suited to the needs of southern African states belonging to the Southern Africa Development Coordination Conference (SADCC). Because the type of company that would meet these criteria is likely to be small and cash-poor, a major portion of grant funds will be used to subsidize the travel and participation of invited companies. ATI will also use the grant to support: (1) workshops on appropriate technology, business processes, and rural development, to be held during the exhibition; (2) brokering services by ATI and other appropriate technology (AT) organizations to link organizations in SADCC countries with sources of AT information and services; and (3) display of goods produced by local cottage industries of interest to U.S. importers.
