Description

In 2002, Elaine Bannon took a working holiday in Kenya. There, her experience as a volunteer changed not only the lives of the semi-nomadic Maasai people with whom she worked, but also her own. Dedicating herself to volunteer work in eastern Africa, The Power of One charts the inspirational journey and work of one Dublin woman. This book also explores the `question' of Africa and global poverty, highlighting the inadequate responses of the West and the need for a greater sense of urgency for seeking a redemptive solution to the plight of so many millions. The story of Elaine Bannon reminds us that the work of just one person can make a world of change.
