Participants were engaged in exercises aimed at understanding value chain analysis, production costs, marketing costs, and constraints to value chain development. Training also focused on developing the skills needed to identify and sell new markets, and designing business models to apply to specific produce supply chain to link farmers to buyers.

1) This image investigates value and is reflected by the gradient going from dark red to white on the strawberry.
2) The subject matter of the photo is a strawberry, I approached my subject by placing it against a plain white background to make the viewer immediately look at the strawberry.
3) I like that the strawberry isn't just all red and that you can see the gradual change from red to white.
4) I could improve this by taking a closer shot of the strawberry to fill up more of the photo.

Value(s) for Money? Philanthropy as a Catalyst for Social Change (March 6-9, 2014)
Increasing social and environmental challenges, writ globally, are raising the stakes for philanthropy to find "solutions". The deeply complex nature of these challenges, however, defies easy fixes and requires more sophisticated and diffuse systems level approaches. Is the philanthropic sector ready, or capable of meeting critical systemic challenges? Probably not, as seen through the lens of Michael Edwards in a recent think piece entitled 'Beauty and the Beast: Can Money Ever Foster Social Transformation?'.
Innovative funding mechanisms that support social change - like crowd-funding, social impact bonds, payments for eco-system services and prize-backed challenges - have diversified the funding landscape and brought in new resources. The system, however, is arguably out of balance with too much focus placed on revenue-generation, and directing financial resources, through the market. At the same time, less funding is available for the deeper, less tangible drivers of social change - change that is driven by the beneficiaries themselves and is inherently more democratic. Money, while a seemingly essential tool in change processes, can be a "curse", reinforcing or exacerbating the very circumstances and power imbalances at the heart of systemic social challenges.
The objective of this program, in partnership with Hivos, is to shape a new narrative on funding for deep social change that can influence current and future funding trends and global policies.
This picture is a zoom-in shot of series of hexagons. This is also an example of one of the principles of design, pattern. I used Photoshop to adjust the lighting and blur to bring out the whites and blacks of the picture.
