Mali Development Group and its partners
MDG works with three regular partners in Mali and one in the U.K:
Jeunesse et Développement (J&D)
|
J&D is our biggest partner. It is a Malian NGO established in 1991, which has grown steadily since then, and is highly regarded by both the communities it works with and the international agencies who fund its projects. MDG funds a liaison worker, who monitors our projects and reports back regularly on progress. In this way we have been able to make a difference to many communities in Mali

Sahel Eco
