The water needs of indigenous tribal peoples in India came to our attention when Jebra Muchahary, Chief Advisor of Indian Confederation of Indigenous and Tribal Peoples (ICITP) attended the 2007 International Water Training. A partnering congregation with EDGE, Dardenne Presbyterian Church of St. Louis, MO, has visited with Jebra in India and an ambitious training project will take place there in April 2009.

ed. Dave says this training will take place in March, but the date has been changed to April 28-30, 2009 since the interview.
