Our Business is Climate Change Consciousness & Responsible Lifestyles for African Youth
We are happy to dedicated space to share what's most important to us www.betterworld-cameroon.com We're setting up Bafut ecovillage as a collaborative & participatory investigation into sustainability stewardship in Africa.
Building on our collective wisdom and mapping out our own country’s experience within the Permaculture field. Internationally we are building ties with innovative networks in sustainability existing all over the world.
We are not only interested in ourselves, we want to look into social innovation in Regenerative Education and to learn from entrepreneurship everywhere.
We find ourselves in a world where it feels increasingly important to build relationships with others around the world facing the same struggles.
Better World Cameroon, Umbrella Youth Development NGO , has worked to promote intercultural understanding, prioritizing youth and women as being the real change makers in Africa above all political or religious affiliation, emphasizing traditional African solidarity as that which is common to us all before that which divides us. All of this has been made possible due to the vision of one man, Konkankoh Joshua Ngwa, the founder of Bafut Ecovillage Vision. Konkankoh wholeheartedly believes that an intentional cultural youth entrepreneurship community molded after traditional African indigenous knowledge systems, could be the foundation of a long-lasting peace between the protagonists of the Ambazonian crisis and all peoples of the world, transcending self-interest to work together to secure a common future. Since its founding in 1996, Better World Cameroon has worked as a liberal peace and ecological centre, gathering young people from every part of the world to learn from each other, engage with one another and form enduring bonds of friendship, Cameroon is not technologically inferior to any other country at developing natural and human Potential for sustainable development. I was in McGill University last year to present Bafut Ecovillage's locally resourced High Value Agricultural Products HVAP (Ginger, Turmeric and Moringa) to be checked and benched marked against international standards for our strategic Youth Entrepreneurship & Poverty Eradication Initiative. As part of the Pan African Ecovillage Development platform, we become a national platform of strategies for the promotion of Education for Sustainable Development and youth green entrepreneurship and women transformational leadership. This is working through greening our training curriculums so education can empower youth & women and give them quality knowledge and life skills of development action competence. With the situation of schools shut down by the difficult political process, ecovillage design becomes a facilitating process that gives them space and voice to be active in decision making and to develop into green entrepreneurs that are focused on forging green economies for their communities.
The deplorable economic situation in Africa needs youth that can take the lead in meaningful innovations to drive regional development.
