HHH029 Heifer International Interview

In the first of this podcast's kind, I interviewed Jason Woods, journalist for Heifer International . Heifer is a global non-profit organization that works to provide livestock and agricultural support in order to end hunger and build economies. In this podcast, Jason explains how Heifer International began; we discuss the work the Heifer International does around the world with a few success stories; and how "social capital" benefits communities. I also learn about the treacherous business of harvesting cardamom -- it's more dangerous than you could imagine.
