Local control

You and your neighbor Agustín are pretty excited aboutthis ecotourism project, but some other people in the community are not.They would rather tend to their crops rather than take care of tourists.Agustín thinks it might be easier to organize a small group to runthe project rather than try to include everyone. Meetings would be shorterand more effective, and you wouldn't have to persuade people to help outif they didn't want to.
