Compensation


 
 
 
 
 
Emphasis on In-Kind Compensation
These project personnel are setting up for a village compensation session, which includes the distribution of in-kind goods. People receiving compensation are given a choice between cash and a wide range of in-kind items. The options include everything from bicycles to plows, and from grinders to sewing machines. Residents say the in-kind goods can be very helpful because their villages generally don’t have banks for convenient savings of cash, and because it is very difficult to buy the goods in distant towns and transport them to their homes.
