The Type 2 Panel vans design was credited to Dutch Volkswagen importer Ben Pon and dates back to drawings he made on a visit to Wolfsburg in 1946. However production had wait as the factory was at capacity building the Volkswagen Type 1 (Beetle). Available in numerous guises the Type 2 came as a Panel Van, Pick Up truck, Bus and Camper van of numerous types
The second generation of the Type 2 the T2 was introduced in 1969. The T2 lost the split screen of the T1 and is slightly larger and is heavier than the earlier T1. At 1.6 L and 35 kW (48 PS; 47 bhp) DIN, the engine was also slightly larger. The new model also did away with the swing axle rear suspension and transfer boxes previously used to raise ride height.
A mid-life face lift updated it to a T2b introducing rounded bumpers and doing away with the step ahead of the front wheel.
In 1972, for the 1973 model year, exterior revisions included relocated front turn indicators, squared off and set higher in the valance, above the headlights. Also, square-profiled bumpers, which became standard until the end of the T2 in 1979, were introduced in 1973 with a compressible structure behind the front bumpers, in order to comply with new US safety regulations
Production of the T2 ceased in Europe and USA in 1979. Not produced in Mexico until 1971 production continued until 1996. Brazilian production commenced in 1976 and is still current, and Argentinian production spanned 1981-86

U.S. Army Africa command team visit peacekeeping training sites in Rwanda, Burundi
Story and photo by Sgt. Maj. Kimberly Williams
U.S. Army Africa
ENTEBBE, Uganda – Capacity building is a top priority for U.S. Army Africa. Therefore, during a visit to Rwanda and Burundi Oct. 19-20, Maj. Gen. William B. Garrett III and Command Sgt. Maj. Gary Bronson, the command team for U.S. Army Africa, seized the opportunity to see Africa Contingency Operations Training and Assistance sites in both countries.
“I was very impressed by the ACOTA programs in Rwanda and Burundi, where we are working closely with our partners to increase their capacity to support peacekeeping operations,” said Garrett.
Managed and funded by the Department of State, ACOTA is an initiative designed to improve African ability to respond quickly to crises by providing selected militaries with the training and equipment required to execute humanitarian or peace support operations.
At each site, civilian facilitators work closely with U.S. military noncommissioned officers, sent to the countries as mentors, in order to provide the most up-to-date and realistic learning experience possible.
Bronson, as U.S. Army Africa’s senior NCO, took the opportunity to meet with the U.S. facilitators and mentors in both countries to determine the road ahead. In the future, said Bronson, U.S. Army Africa needs to develop a process to prepare U.S. Army mentors for their role and to match up the right individuals with the skills needed.
But, Bronson said he is very impressed with what he has seen so far in both Rwanda and Burundi.
The ACOTA program is Rwanda is focused on preparing soldiers for peacekeeping operations while deployed in Darfur, Sudan. The site in Rwanda also has a computer simulation lab, which is the only simulation center for peacekeeping support operations in Africa.
“The partnership is doing great,” said Col. Aloys Muganga, commandant of the Rwanda Military Academy at Gako, which hosts the ACOTA in Rwanda. “They have trained my people so well that we can now train ourselves.”
Similar to Rwanda, the ACOTA program in Burundi focuses on preparing soldiers for peacekeeping operations, but in this case, to Mogadishu, Somalia.
This is the seventh iteration of ACOTA in Burundi.
The four-week program in Burundi includes individual skills, collective skills, lane evaluations, weapons familiarization and live fire ranges.
The 1st Battalion of the Burundi Land Forces took part in the first ACOTA rotation in 2007 and just recently returned from deployment to Mogadishu. Now, the Burundi Land Forces are bringing in these experienced soldiers to train the next rotations.
Sgt. Norberto Ramos, from the U.S. Army National Guard’s Co. B, 165th Infantry Battalion from Puerto Rice, is in Burundi along with two other NCOs to provide mentorship during the four-week program. Ramos said he believes the ACOTA program is successful.
“This has been great,” he said. “You can see the Burundi soldiers’ eagerness to learn in their eyes. “They are a beautiful people.”
“I’m happier and more satisfied with what I’m doing here than any time before,” Ramos said. “It builds me up as a leader and a person. It is a pleasure and an honor to be here.”

FAO project GCP/MON/002/NET - Capacity Building and Institutional Development for Participatory Natural Resources Management and Conservation in Forest Areas of Mongolia. The project responds to a direct request from the Ministry of Nature and Environment of Mongolia to support the Government’s effort to involve the local population in the sustainable manegment of Mongolian forest:
To stop and reverse the ongoing degradation of the forests of Mongolia and to contribute to poverty alleviation through the development of a model of local level forest ecosystem management at soum level that can be replicated to other sites in the forested aimags of Mongolia. To that effect the Project will deal with institutional, social, economic, financial, scientific and technical aspects of this compound problem;
The focus of the Project will be both at the local and national levels. The local level is fundamental for the development of participatory forestry and the national level is fundamental for the improvement of the institutional framework and creating an enabling context for participatory forestry in the country. The project will build upon the experiences of FAO and other partners in Mongolia.

Village Champaguga, Dumriguda Block, Dist. Vishakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, INDIA..Killo Padma, left, with her one year old daughter Rajashri Killo along with other mothers sit outside Killo Rukmini, a Angawadi worker's house. Killo Rukmini has been spearheading the meal programme in her village against all odds. With a total population of 76 households comprising 356 people (175 females), the village is one of the several remote areas that are heard to reach due to non-existent roads. The One Full Meal is a state government programme that aims at improving the nutrient intake of pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers and reducing the prevalence and severity of maternal anemia. The programme reaches over 350,000 pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers across some 26,000 anganwadi centres (about 30 per cent of ICDS projects in state) located in villages where malnutrition rates are high. Some 7,600 (29 per cent) of these anganwadi centres are located in hard to reach Adivasi villages. UNICEF aids this ICDS programme with training officials, development and capacity building in aganwadis.One Full Meal entitles pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers to receive a free nutritious meal every day between 11 am and 2 pm at the village anganwadi centre 25 days per month. The hot-cooked meal - prepared daily by the anganwadi helper - contains 125 grams of cereal, 30 grams of pulses, 50 grams of green leafy vegetables, 50 grams of egg and 200 ml of milk, and provides 1052 kilocalories, 33 grams of protein, and about 500 mg of calcium (i.e. about 40 per cent of the daily requirement of these nutrients). After the meal, the women who participate in the programme receive on-the-spot iron and folic acid supplements for the control of iron deficiency and anemia, are counseled by the anganwadi worker on how to improve their dietary intake and nutrition, and are encouraged to use the services provided at the monthly Village Health and Nutrition Day.The anganwadi worker keeps a record of the women who are enrolled in the programme, the services they receive, the weight they gain during pregnancy and the weight of their children at birth.
