Dear G-I community member, I am Sebastian Eck and I'm inviting you to join me in one of my tasks at the G-I. When I am not busy working at the G-I as a micro-level conflict transformation coach, I am working together with my Ghanaian counterpart Nutsugah Ameno to make a difference in Ghana in ecological terms. Stay tuned as I will be sharing my work on and for "Permaculture for Peace" in here on a regular basis. "Permaculture for Peace" is a project by TRANSCEND International Ghana which is dedicated to saving plants and strengthening the ecosystem in the peri-urban region around their capital in Accra. To give you a brief idea what this is about, most people who care to look at the facts, recognize climate change as a serious future problem. We know about the consequences (e.g: species extinction and mass migration) but how much do we know about solutions and ways ahead? Permaculture is an approach to a sustainable ecological future that offers actionable methods and solutions. The G-I is calling on all ecologically inclined minds, to join in and work with Nutsugah who is based in Accra in preserving the ecosystem in the peri-urban region right around the sprawling capital Accra. Watch out for my movie reviews on Permaculture and my interviews with Permaculture practitioners.
