Correction: news article published February 2016 In the news story "10,000 biogas plants to be installed in Tanzania" published in our February newsletter, it stated that "SNV, with support from the Tanzanian Government and the Norwegian Embassy, will install an additional 10,000 biogas plants from 2016 to 2018". Please note that this statement is incorrect. The statement should read: "SNV together with DGIS, ABPP, Hivos, the Tanzanian Government and the Norwegian Embassy, aims to install 10,000 biogas plants over a two-year period (2016-2017)." |
