The West african Vetiver Network

 

The West African Vetiver Network has been established in Accra, Ghana. It will serve both English and French language users in the West African sub-region including Cameroon. The network will be managed by CEDIA with collaboration from the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research in Ghana. Formalities in that respect are on course. On another hand the support and cooperation pledged by the President of The Vetiver Network have galvanized CEDIA to put the scheme on track earlier than projected. In line with the objectives of the said regional network, CEDIA with support from Sasakawa Global 2000 has successfully completed the translation into French the vetiver green booklet: "VETIVER GRASS: The Hedge Against Erosion". CEDIA takes this opportunity to APPEAL for funds and assistance to produce the French version of this useful manual in sufficient quantity to serve not only a region with dominating number of French speaking states but also the rest of French users in many other countries.
