The Batwa, Burundi's indigenous people, understand how to live in harmony with nature rather than destroying it💚That fits the mission of Social Ecology Education Fund (SEEF): "preserving the beauty of the earth and its habitants"🦚🌿

Together with its primary expert partner IPREBAD and eu can aid, SEEF provided technical and financial assistance for a goat breeding program for batwa young mothers in the hills of Matana (Bururi).

That will allow them to:
👉 get a more stable living from livestock farming trade
👉increase resilience in the first place
👉 reinforce healthcare and education later on.

Partnering with SEEF in challenging times for the DRC...
"Salut cher Frédérick,
J'espère que vous allez bien. Nous aussi, nous allons bien malgré la guerre à l'est du pays. Nous venons de commencer le cycle des stages pour nos jeunes agronomes. Nous allons accueillir 340 au total cette année. Le premier groupe de 50 est déjà là. Nous essayons de les encadrer pour qu'ils deviennent utiles à la société.
Merci beaucoup et salutations à Patrizia Civetta!."
