The first such exchange and learning tour was organized in September-October 2002 between three East African countries (Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda) and two South Asian countries (Sri Lanka and India). The exchange involved several innovative features which are highlighted here. The learning exchange included 16 development practitioners from Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda (i.e., project staff from Bank-supported projects in early childhood development and medicinal plant projects, civil society representatives, a traditional healer, a parliamentarian and a minister) accompanied by 5 Bank staff working on these projects. The group visited counterparts in Sri Lanka and India, including projects using informatics for social sector development. 2012-08-13T09:24:57Z 2012-08-13T09:24:57Z 2003-03 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2003/03/2188895/east-africa-south-asia-learning-exchanging-indigenous-knowledge http://hdl.handle.net/10986/9738 English Africa Region Findings & Good Practice Infobriefs; No. 86 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Brief Publications & Research South Asia Africa India Ethiopia Uganda Sri Lanka Kenya
