Like many children in Africa, this young man had never seen an orange before. One of thousands of malnourished people, now unable to survive from the natural wilderness that Africa once offered. Hunters and gatherers, the SAN Kalahari African Bushmen are relegated to contained areas of land better suited to species needing less water than human beings. Their original way of life is unfortunately a thing of the past.
I was privileged to meet a village of SAN in Namibia in 2011. With the African water crisis becoming more and more evident, and the water scarcity becoming greater, these Bushmen have no access to a reliable water source, and are unable to feed themselves any longer. BUT THEY WANT TO! They want to be sustainable. They want to learn how to grow their own food and harvest their own water.
That's where I come in. I am a Permaculture Consultant and I have been studying Desert Permaculture with a view to returning to this village in 2022, to live with them for 12 months and teach them all I know about sustainability and growing food. I plan to take seed and have food trees grown in advance.
I will cover all my own costs like airfare and accommodation and travel, but I'm going to need help with trees, seed, water access and tools. If you are interested in helping me bring this sustainable development project to these beautiful and amazing people, donate now. I guarantee that EVERY dollar you donate will go DIRECTLY to the African Bushman of this Kalahari Village.
