During a 35-year-long career, oilman Rod MacAlister has mostly worked in Africa, managing businesses, but also keeping an eye on and supporting the communities in which he was working.  He served as president of the U.S. African Development Fund for several years, and with primatologist Jane Goodall, built an orphanage and sanctuary for chimpanzees in the Congo that is the largest in Africa.  Other projects he has spearheaded include building toilets for rural schools in Gabon, and establishing a medical clinic in the Congo.  Rod now works in Gabon, running a small, independent company that produces 10 percent of the country’s oil. In the spring of 2013 he spoke with Terms of Reference host Stephen Ladek.
