Help sow the seeds
for the future we want – support the greening of schools
through food forests which are developed in a holistic and
participatory way by all the relevant stakeholders.
The ReSCOPE Programme is facilitating the creation of
climate-smart schools in Malawi, Zambia, Kenya, Zimbabwe, and
Uganda. These projects demonstrate to their communities that
abundance and resilience can easily be achieved through creative
use of local resources.
We have developed and implemented the Integrated Land Use Design
(ILUD) as a tool for school communities to re-design their
school environments to better serve their needs with exciting
results. We have so far worked with more than 200 schools in 5
countries. In 2009 we hosted the 9th International Permaculture
Convergence (IPC9) for the first time in Africa in Malawi.
