It’s surreal to think of what life was like for all of us a year ago, just as news of the Coronavirus began to emerge around the world. At this time last year, I had just returned from a trip to Myanmar.

With our partners in Myanmar, we conducted a Training of Trainers course on Business Formation & Management, empowering 45 people to serve as trainers. Looking back, the timing of our trip was perfect. The trainers returned to their communities in Myanmar and began their work. Shortly afterwards, travel was restricted, and the global pandemic took hold.
