I just learned of John’s passing and wish to convey my belated and heartfelt condolences to John’s family and friends. I met John with Nigel Bell ca. 2000 when exploring the prospect of attachment on retirement from the World Bank, where I was charged with designing, and had experience in implementing with others, a training programme for ministers and senior officials on environment and natural resources policy reforms, with reference to sustainability and globalisation, prior to Bank investments. As a tropical ecologist from SE Asia. I could empathise with John’s IPM work in the region. John and Nigel were generous to accommodate me at CEP as visitor after my retirement from the Bank. This experience enabled me to help John design a distance learning MSc on Sustainable Development across faculties, based on the CEP experience, and which is now offered by the University of London. John was a modest, humble, gentle, resourceful and generous person who will be missed by many.
