Bernard Conyers Award2000 AwardsWe have received two publications resulting from awards made during 2000. Ken Kalonde, from Malawi, sent us his booklet on herbal medicines and treatments and Mokbul Morshed Ahmad, from Bangladesh, sent us his book entitled Donors, NGOs, the State and their clients in Bangladesh. We are expecting a copy of a video on Innovative Backyard Mini Fish Farming shortly.
2001 Awards Manfa Lutfie from the Institute for People's Education & Advocacy (LAPAR), Indonesia to make and publish comics created by local villagers entitled 'The Voice of Silence'. The aim of the comics will be to document the peasants' original experiences in their own words to aid their struggle for their rights and empowerment in rural areas. Dan Otieno Ong'or of Uhai Lake Forum, Kisumu, Kenya, to produce a video to show the ramifications of poverty against a rich fishery resource base in Lake Victoria. And, finally, to Ben Wensley, from England, to help him to publish a handbook, written in Sanskrit text, entitled 'Womens Health and Medicinal Plants'. His book will be published by Jajarkot Permaculture Programme and will be used in workshops.
