Tanzania
- Conflicting advice from country office - Programme which most closely maps is “Rural micro, small and medium enterprise support” - At very least we need to do some preliminary assessments (e.g. VCA) in Zanzibar and invite IFAD to participate in country advisory group - Need to link with programme managers

India
- IFAD chose Uttarakhand as our site so more straightforward - IFAD suggested Federations as project partners but not much implementing capacity - Contacts already made with field officers - Need to try and get invited to ILSP inception meeting on May 12 - Advisory group to involve IFAD – Josna Sitin. Chair: will invite Secretary – still being worked out.
