Many of the stories I gathered have appeared in magazines and newspapers, and finally in a book aptly called The 50 Mile Bouquet (St. Lynn’s Press, 2012), which documented pioneering flower farmers, progressive floral designers, and inspired DIY flower lovers.

    Terms of Reference and Scope of Services Assignment Title: Regional Office Consultant (National) Reference No: C 53 ONE CONSULTANT for the RAKHINE STATE OFFICE Date of Issue: 03 Nov 2020 Background The Republic of the Union of Myanmar has received financing from the World Bank towards the cost of its NCDD Project which is being implemented by the Department of Rural Development (DRD) of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Irrigation. NCDDP Cycle 5 is currently being implemented in 63 townships (see the below table), and will expand to a peak of 76 townships in Year 6 (2020). In each township, the NCDDP was originally implemented with the support of a township level technical assistance team (TTA) (procured by DRD and provided by a mix of domestic and international firms and NGOs). The TTA teams provided technical assistance and capacity building support to the township DRD teams for the initial operations in each township and the State/ Regional project offices are well organized with an adequate project staff to have close supervision/ administration to and liaising role between the Union and township levels.
