Since 1976 I have produced educational and technical materials for a range of civil society organisations focussing on women’s issues, land and environment, worker education and literacy, HIV and health. In the past ten years I have worked in communications and knowledge management for Mott MacDonald on a series of health programmes funded by UKaid.

I joined the SACHED Trust, a South African non-profit organization, to work on Peoples College, an educational supplement to the newspaper Weekend World. Under the guidance of subject experts, I wrote a 26-part series on health care, courses on chemistry and biology and articles on African history and current affairs. I also worked on other SACHED publications including Working Women, which I wrote and photographed.
