Ashley was invited to spend a week in Durban and Pietermaritzburg with church leaders from South Africa and the United Kingdom. The exchange was hosted with great kindness and generosity by Church Land Programme. The group spent time with Abahlali baseMjondolo and communities living in shacks around Durban, the South Durban Community Environmental Alliance, and the Ujamaa Centre at UKZN. It was a space to reflect on what it means to be prophetic in the world today, and how standing with those on the margins is a challenge the Church must meet.
