About the Book

How is it that CODEP Haiti has succeeded when so many other projects in Haiti fail? Is there a way for funding organizations to evaluate likely outcomes in advance?

Mountain Majesty: The History of CODEP Haiti – Where Sustainable Agricultural Development Works, Volume 3 continues the captivating story of CODEP and provides new and refreshing answers to these questions.

John Winings chronicles the continuing development of the CODEP leadership team. On their own as a new Haitian foundation, they navigate upheavals in their major US funding source – organizational changes, funding decreases, and priority realignments. At the same time, Fondasyon CODEP becomes increasingly complex, with new management challenges, markets, and business opportunities. Winings introduces a unique way to evaluate projects by comparing project complexity with local experience.
