'On the Line' is a project which aims to establish friendships between communities who share our time zone. Through communication, visits, exchanges, events, and celebrations, it links people in eight countries along the meridian line.

Cambridge is part of this after Christian Aid put local allotment holders in touch with Malian market gardeners. A link has been established with the village Wédié in the Dogon Plateau. The contrasts between these communities are huge, but both groups hope to learn more about each other.
