Indeed, my story shows the need to speak while acting for the climate and peace in the region plagued by armed conflicts. In the context of violent conflicts and humanitarian crises as here in eastern DRCongo, we cannot talk about climate action without integrating a dynamic of peaceful conflict management because, without peace, all the efforts made for development remain in vain and without success.
Organic Farming and Agroforestry
There is a need for the community to move away from short term solutions with negative impacts on the environment, and instead embrace solutions that are from nature itself and nature friendly when it comes to agriculture. At The Polly Foundation, we are training farmers to adopt the use of natural products that they can easily access either at no cost or less cost to help them in farming.
