It is planned to develop a comprehensive set of country guides on Appropedia. These will help to prepare and equip aid and development workers, both paid and voluntary, before and during their work, and act as a resource whenever needed.

You may start the country guide for a particular location (country or region). In time a structure will be developed.

General pages[edit | edit source]

Depending on the intended project, some more specific pages will be useful:
