It brings experiences from grassroots organisations, think tanks and nongovernmental organisations to a wider audience.

About this title

Review

The many strengths of the book include the fact that it is clearly written and free of jargon, and the fact that the layout is superb. ... The Commonwealth Secretariat deserves congratulation for its initiative in publishing this book. --The Round Table, Vol. 99, No 406, February 2010
