BEEKEEPING PROJECT, UGANDA We have been receiving Beekeeping & Development for two years under sponsorship and would like to receive it in the future. We would like to make our subscription payment in ‘Candle Currency’ and our 2 kg of candles accompany this letter. Our candles are made with beeswax from Apis mellifera scutellata and we believe you will find them of the highest quality. [Ed: Yes indeed, perfect candles. Information on Beeswax barter and candle currency see page 16.]

Our project started three years ago and we have now attained financial sustainability. We believe that if
the project can be termed a success, this is due to the following:
AAA
Provision of sufficient financial means by the Austrian Government to build up the infrastructure of the project, while at the same time avoiding unnecessary expenditure;
*
A step-by-step approach to building the project;
*
Integrating traditional with advanced beekeeping methods;
*
Providing an advisor and monitoring for two years;
a
Working with reliable and capable personnel;
Encouraging old-fashioned words like work ethic, discipline, idealism, sacrifice and honesty.
The donor’s money has been put to good use and should enable the project to continue running without further assistance. Honey production in year 2000 was 6,560 kg. oe
