Review for The Vetiver Network International, San Antonio, TX, USA
The TVNI is the type of organization which the world's development would needs: promoting a simple technology and inexpensive but highly effective, through the Vetiver System and its many benefits, for a sustainable development, for a better relationship between man and nature ... Promote this plant that in fact offers a whole range of environmental solutions ... International platform for exchange and promotion of the Vetiver System, bringing together all kinds of users worldwide, non-profit and not return to the classical system of development aid, born and organized from the meeting of a handful of passionates (thank to Dick Grimshaw and John Greenfield in particular) TVNI gave me the chance to be integrated in 2007, following my work with Vetiver, which began in 2003 in Madagascar. TVNI, through its website and thanks to the exceptional dedication of a few enthusiasts, introduced to me this wonderful plant, which has proven in my opinion the best solution offered to fight against the terrible soil erosion in Madagascar, an green island became red island, and all devastating environmental consequences but also economic impacts. Soil erosion is a problem understated yet affecting many sectors. In response, the Vetiver System can offer solutions that impact on all sectors of social and economic life of a country like Madagascar. TVNI gives a recognition for the work done under the technical criteria in the world benefiting the users of the Vetiver System. TVNI is an incredibly rich database, a capitalization of this work, free access to an exchange of experiences and knowledge. TVNI, it is also a rich appreciation thanks to the support of the King and the Princess of Thailand and his foundation. Certificates of Technical Excellence, Certificate for the best web photo album, nomination as Senior Technical Advisor and Vetiver Champion Award have been awarded to me thanks to my work, which awards are a source of encouragement and motivation to persevere, despite difficulties in the way of promotion and application of the Vetiver System. TVNI, it is also many international and regional conferences, where I had the honor of attending many times, and where I learned so much. Also I met very nice, very motivated and very interesting people behind TVNI. In short, I owe a debt of gratitude to TVNI, which was and remains a great support. While hoping that the TVNI can improve its mission until each country takes the example of Thailand in the use of Vetiver System. While wishing a great success in our mission.
