After looking at a few photos of other programmes that have implemented our programmes, facilitators turned into small businesses and ran a little shop – the best way to learn the challenges of running a business. Participants then put on their “villagers’ hats” and experienced the first module of the business literacy a+b=3 has designed for GIZ-AFP Laos and which focuses on the challenges of running a business, and how to follow cash, record inflows and outflows of cash, and reconcile cash.
