Equal Times met up with William Park just a few months after he had completed a project of mammoth proportions: a 500-page encyclopaedia compiling, in collaboration with the community, a large portion of their medical knowledge.

It isn't up to us to decide for them," explains the specialist in sustainable agriculture.
