A crash course in changing the world.
I have learned so much in the past five hours! It is overwhelming and delicious to see the number of innovators who are exploring and implementing permaculture initiatives in Africa. From local activists to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation - who funded the launch of the $11.5 million partnership aimed at helping 50,000 small fruit farmers in Uganda and Kenya double their incomes by 2014 by providing mango and passion fruit juice to Coke's supply chain for the first time.

I have chosen to "shadow" Peggy Pascal because of the success of the Garden in a Sack initiative in the Kibera slum in Nairobi. http://www.ruaf.org/sites/default/files/UAM21%20p.38-40.pdf
I plan to learn more about the RUAF Foundation as well.
