Several of the articles in this document arose out of the International Council for Adult Education's World Assembly held in Bangkok, Thailand, in January 1990. The first article is on the 1989 evaluation of the Hilltribe Development Project, a long-term project undertaken in the north of Thailand. The article briefly describes various aspects of the project, their objectives, the level of participation, and outcomes. The next article (by Elizabeth Cox) is on making and using training materials for nutrition education in a community development project in Papua New Guinea that has used printed materials, slogans, songs, acting, role playing, and screen-printed T-shirts. The next article (by Marjorie Crombie) describes one visitor's 2-day visit to the Nang Naew cattle raising project in Thailand. Fund raising in China's adult schools, which are no longer funded by the state, is the subject of the next article (by Wang Hong Ye). The article on defining popular education for the next decade in Thailand (by Gotham Arya) offers practical advice and recommends a holistic view. The next article (by Francis Hezel) is on what can be done to prevent suicide in Micronesia. The last article (by M. Mahbubur Rahman) is about the Community Information and Planning System, a training and action research experience in the Asia Pacific region. (CML)
