Who are Adam Hutchinson (EGI's Director) and Sarah Rice (EGI's Project Manager & Research Specialist)? Here's something many people don't know: they're both part-time Senior Co-Pastors (at different Baptist churches). In fact, Adam now pastors the church where Sarah and her husband previously served. As well as that: Adam brings 30+ years of experience in international development, including roles at Prison Fellowship International and Prison Fellowship Cambodia. He's worked in global governance, built scalable international programmes, developed innovative assessment tools (try the free pulse check here: https://lnkd.in/eEWP3uny), and walked alongside leaders as they navigate complexity, limited resources, and uncertainty. Sarah has spent over a decade working in organisational leadership and governance, as an adjunct lecturer, and in international development research and design. She loves working for NGOs like Hoffnungsträger Stiftung and partners like Street Business School & Thrive for Good, who use pioneering approaches to poverty reduction. Adam lived and worked in Cambodia; Sarah is a 5th-generation Zimbabwean. Now Adam lives in the South Island, and Sarah in the North Island, in New Zealand. They understand the realities of leading NGOs or Churches, and working cross-culturally because they're doing it themselves—balancing governance, strategy, people, limited resources, and competing priorities every week. They're not just advising—they're still doing the mahi! These photos capture Adam and Sarah in action in Zambia, where they came alongside a grassroots movement to strengthen its organisational model and governance through a collaborative restructuring process. Thanks, Kaylie Cordingley, MPH & Episcopal Relief & Development, for making it possible for Enhance Global Impact to come alongside this grassroots movement.
