Camel Cheese - Seemed like a Good Idea

Little did Nancy Jones suspect what lay ahead for her when she thought that pasteurising milk in Mauritania would be a good idea. Her dream dairy just had to overcome a few minor hurdles: there were no cows in the desert, only restless camels; Mauritanians loved raw milk but regarded local industry with mistrust; there was no trained manpower; the technical environment was almost nonexistent; importers ruled the market - and she was a woman.Nancy Abeiderrahmane, as she became, wandered into a twenty-year-long adventure that would earn her a Rolex Award and a few medals, and more importantly offer her a unique experience of the pitfalls and transformations that lie on the rocky road to Development.

Nancy M. Jones, MBE, was born in the UK and grew up in Spain, where she studied engineering.

Eighteen years and four children later she rather unwittingly set up a dairy to pasteurise camel milk, an adventure that kept her very busy for the following twenty years.
