Future Workshop

During the week we have all been preparing future workshops for a group of young students, some of them newly graduated from the agricultural faculty at the University of Dar es Salaam. The purpose was to generate as many ideas as possible on how we can combat hunger! And today was the big day! It was a huge success :) Throughout the day we did a lot of brainstorming and had some very interesting and useful discussions so that in the end we actually managed to come up with brilliant ideas and solutions to how we can punch hunger. But what was equally as important for us global changers was that the participants were so willing to share their knowledge on what is going on and the situation here in Tanzania. Among others, we heard how people are not always aware on their rights and how land has been taken away from them and forced to move with only little resources to build a new existence. This is only an indication of that what we are doing is needed. These young people were so cool and we learned a lot from them. And just as cool, they liked what we are doing and would be happy to help us and join us! SO GREAT :) Because we will need these clever young people to shape our campaign and to reach our goal – thank you so much guys!!!

With all the great ideas we came up with in the future workshop today, we see that, as youth we are a very important resource that governments depend on for national development.

Let’s join hands in combating hunger in Africa!
