“Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world” Nelson Mandela

Goodwill Trip in November 2008:

Organisation for the Mali Trip is well under way and is shaping up to be extraordinary! The trip for business leaders will run from around November 3rd - November 14 is for anyone who wants a shake up, and is willing to take on the challenge to explore and experience the depths of Malian life.

Remember this is not a tourist trip - it is a serious immersion experience into one of the most forgotten countries in the world. You will never be the same again! For full information see the PDF-Infopack.

The Mali Initiative is a not-for-profit network of committed individuals and organisations whose vision is to provide access to quality education in Mali. Through sustainable development we want to break the cycle of poverty.
