ST. JOHN’S CHURCH, STADHAMPTON, OXFORDSHIRE, OX44 7UA on SUNDAY 11TH OCTOBER, 2.00 pm

I Ni Che, my recently published book about the Mali Development Group and its work in Mali, will be formally launched, followed by tea and cakes. We do hope that you will be able to attend.

Reader Reviews:

I Ni Che is a compelling narrative of long-term grass roots development in Mali

A lovely, moving, robust story, told elegantly and fluently. It comes alive in the portraits of individual people and projects. At a time of such darkness in the world, it's great to read of such useful, generous, collaborative work - and of the author's accurate and positive conclusions about its meaning.

Endorsement by renowned ecologist Satish Kumar: It is a beautiful book about grass roots efforts to help people to help themselves. It is a great description of bottom-up development. John Hedge has written an inspiring as well as an informative book. Anyone and everyone who is interested in the authentic experience of development should read this wonderful testament.
