🍗 A Taste of Appreciation | Thank You, BEEF BOYS MEAT MARKET !

As our 9-day Community Workshop Series continues across Maun, we would like to take a moment to appreciate Beef Boys Maun for supporting our community engagement efforts with their fresh, good-quality chicken.

The chicken was used to prepare delicious pulled chicken sandwiches, which were served to participants during our community workshop. The freshness and quality of the chicken made a noticeable difference in the meal and helped us provide participants with a warm and enjoyable experience. 💚

For Re Jala Peo, our workshops are about more than learning — they are also about creating spaces where community members can connect, share, learn and feel valued.

We are grateful to local businesses such as Beef Boys Maun for contributing to these community-focused initiatives. Your support helps us make each workshop a little more special. 🙏🏾🌱

Our workshop series continues...
More communities, more conversations, more learning and more opportunities to empower communities across Maun.

Thank you, Beef Boys Maun, for being part of the journey! 🍗💚

Re Jala Peo has embarked on a 9-day Community Workshop Series, taking environmental education and practical skills into communities across Maun through a series of Kgotla workshops.

Yesterday, we were at Boyei Kgotla for a community learning session focused on Waste Management and Enterprise Development.

The workshop explored the importance of responsible waste management while encouraging participants to look at waste differently — not simply as something to throw away, but as a resource that can be reused, repurposed and transformed into useful products and potential livelihood opportunities.

Through discussions and practical sharing, participants explored the 3Rs — Reduce, Reuse and Recycle — and reflected on how better waste management can contribute to cleaner communities and create opportunities for enterprise.

It was also a day of learning, connection and recognition. Participants were catered for during the workshop and received Certificates of Attendance in recognition of their participation in the session.

We sincerely appreciate the Boyei community for coming together, sharing their experiences and actively engaging in the conversation around sustainable waste management.

Our journey continues as Re Jala Peo takes this workshop series to communities across Maun.

Together, we can learn, create and turn environmental challenges into opportunities.

Through our Junior Ranger Botswana programme under Re Jala Peo, our learners aren’t just learning about trees, wildlife and water. They’re also learning that they can become the scientists, rangers, educators and leaders who protect it all.

Thank you Larona for sharing your insights and inspiring other young people to dream big for nature 💚

Turning Waste into Ideas 🌱♻️

Term 3 is all about connecting learning with creativity and action!

As part of our Aflatoun and Junior Ranger programmes, learners at Moeti JSS are brainstorming ideas for eco-friendly products they can create using waste materials. Through this activity, learners are combining Aflatoun’s entrepreneurship and financial literacy lessons with Junior Ranger’s environmental stewardship lessons.

These young innovators are preparing their ideas ahead of the Re Jala Peo Environmental Awareness Conference in November, where they will have the opportunity to showcase what they have created. 🌍💡

From waste to useful products — we are nurturing young minds to see possibilities in what others may consider waste.

🌱 From Making Beautiful Products to Thinking Like Entrepreneurs! 🧶

Last week, more than 30 women from the Nina Crochet Project took part in a three-day training focused on product development, marketing, pricing, customer service and entrepreneurship.

The women learned how to price their products sustainably, understand their customers, improve presentation, and turn waste materials into beautiful products. They also put their learning into practice by designing and presenting their own mock stall. 🛍️♻️

What made the training even more special was seeing how the knowledge is already spreading beyond the training room—with women sharing what they learned with their children and family members.

This is what empowerment looks like: building skills, growing confidence and creating opportunities. 💚

We are excited to see the women bring their learning to life at their upcoming stall along Airport Road!

🌱From Garden to Table! 🥬

What a wonderful achievement by the children of Thitoyamokodi Primary School! 💚

The learners have successfully harvested fresh spinach from their school garden — a beautiful example of how learning by doing can turn environmental education into something meaningful and practical.

Through gardening, one of Re Jala Peo ’s sustainability initiatives, children are learning to:
🌱 Grow their own food
💧 Appreciate and conserve natural resources
♻️ Understand sustainable practices
🤝 Work together and take responsibility
💡 Develop skills that can empower them beyond the classroom

This harvest is more than just spinach — it is a harvest of knowledge, skills, responsibility and hope for a more sustainable future. 🌍💚

Well done, Thitoyamokodi Primary School! Keep growing, learning and inspiring! 👏🏽🥬

🌱 Planting Seeds for a Brighter Future in the Okavango Panhandle! 🐘

Every child deserves the chance to discover their potential and become a steward of their environment. That’s why we are thrilled to announce the expansion of our Aflatoun and Junior Ranger programs to Etsha 13 and Jao Village Primary Schools!

Thanks to an incredible partnership with Okwa Foundation, 11 dedicated teachers (alongside Okwa Sarefo) completed intensive training to empower nearly 300 new learners every single week.

Starting now, every Wednesday afternoon, these children will build vital life skills, financial literacy, and a deep passion for Botswana’s wildlife and conservation.

Together, we’re not just launching a project—we’re building lasting community ownership. Welcome to the Re Jala Peo family, Etsha 13 & Jao Village! 💚✨

Celebrating Ranger Day the Junior Ranger way 🌍💚
Today with Maun Educational Park, we hosted Letsholathebe students for a nature trail.
Through Re Jala Peo’s Junior Ranger program, we guide children using:
Head💡→ To know and understand nature
Heart ❤️ → To love and respect it
Hands 🙌 → To protect and take action for it
Because the future of conservation starts with kids who’ve walked the trail, touched the soil, and felt the wild.
Thank you to Maun Educational Park for partnering with us to make Ranger Day unforgettable.

Small seeds. Big change in Maun! 🌱✨

Between 8 and 22 June 2026, Re Jala Peo brought communities across Maun together through our ‘Start Small, Earn Smart’ workshop series. The goal? To show that building a better future doesn’t require massive resources—it starts with the skills, ideas, and opportunities already inside our communities!

By blending entrepreneurship with environmental stewardship, our incredible participants discovered practical ways to boost their livelihoods while caring for the earth. 🌍💡

📊 The Reach
164 total participants across 9 interactive workshops (7 community Kgotla sessions & 2 parent engagement workshops).

Over 90% women! A powerful reflection of their role in supporting families, strengthening local economies, and driving community change.

💡 The Impact
23 innovative micro-business ideas created—ranging from upcycled jewellery and flowerpots to value-added farming and traditional basket weaving!

12 community trees planted across participating Kgotlas to grow a greener future.

Practical financial management skills to help everyday savings and business growth.

💬 In Their Words
"I learned that even saving a small amount of money can make a big difference over time."
— Participant, Moeti Kgotla

"I never thought of business as solving problems in my community. Now I see opportunities all around me, and I feel confident to start something small."
— Participant, Boseja/Kubung Kgotla

"I now know the importance of separating business money from personal money if I want my business to grow."
— Participant, Thito Kgotla

When communities are empowered with practical skills and encouragement, small ideas grow into lasting change. Thank you to everyone in Maun who made this series so inspiring—Re Jala Peo looks forward to continuing this journey with you! 💚
