“Brian…opened a portal for the local field [in South Africa] into the developed child and youth care world, and his work on CYC-Net widened that access, and helped the local field to be seen as committed players in the international child and youth care arena.”

Merle Allsopp: Director of South Africa's National Association of Child Care Workers
