CEIHG Graduates 47th Comprender La Economía Course
CEIHG Graduates 47th Comprender La Economía Course
The CEIHG Managua's "Comprender la Economía" class XLVII graduated on October 24th with 23 graduates, 11 of whom were superior-level and qualified for Georgist Community Fund membership. One successful new element of this course was the employment of a minibus to transport the students to the major bus hubs after each class, thus resolving the late night security and transportation access problems of earlier courses. Another improvement to the course was that the evaluation criteria and calculation was revised to ensure a more realistic evaluation of the certification level of each student.

At this writing, the HGIEC has no funding for next year's planned four CE courses and is actively seeking personal donations and new funding sources.

"Georgist Community Fund" Grows and Celebrates Its 2nd Year
The Georgist Community Fund (Fondo Comunitario Georgista en español), the international association of professed georgists facilitated by the HGIEC, grew to 55 members as of December 2012. Towards the end of the year, member meetings had more participation. A visit from HGIEC Vice-President Ted Gwartney attracted a record number of participants who came out to greet him and his wife, Toni. Unfortunately, the GCF end of year celebration on December 15th was not nearly as well attended as the previous year, as many members had competing commitments for their time during the holiday season. At the celebration, GCF Director announced that the "Citizen's Dividend" would be distributed in the month of January.
Ted and Toni's international visited attacted a record GCF meeting attendance.
