Another milestone for our private micro-impact fund ... going Africa ! In the Nsumbi district of Boma (DRC), S.E.E.F is building a brand new primary eco-school with 6 classes and sanitary facilities for the local 350 boys and girls. In exchange for funding, school board and surrounding village people will commit to our social en ecological programme. A scoop and boost for the region !

Efforts to prepare the children as eco-ambassadors for the future will come to reality as young are ventured into training for protection and promotion of the environment, including its people. Therefore, Social Ecology Education Fund has set up this "Train the trainer eco-program"  for school teachers in the Krishna District of  Andhra Pradesh.  Kick off in 2021 !

How to put into practice integral ecology in an Indian educational context for kids? Which lessons to learn from Covid 19 towards a new normal from Europe to India? Thanks to the organizing committee for having us on July 18th 2020 as key note speaker and facilitator on this international webinar with one central theme: How to put into practice 5 years of Laudato Sì, the encyclical on integral ecology and care for our common home.

Happy to inform our supporters that we will soon start with our "Stand Up, Girl" project.  During three years, we will follow and support 5 future teachers from Andhra Pradesh, a south-eastern state in India. The adolescent girls all belong to "Dalit" families, the lower cast with an uncertain future. The relationship between our micro fund and each girl is based on equality. In exchange for our financial and educational assistance, they commit to teach to the kids of their home villages the social and ecological principles of our charter. An important step towards gender emancipation, responsible citizenship and a leverage for a future generation!  

For the third year in row since the set up of Jonah Ecological Kindergarten, we travelled back to Canning during the new year period. As the organization is still young, a 'field inspection' remains very useful. Needless to say that we are always warmly welcomed. Also this year, where we were invited as special guests at the new year spectacle from local parish : starring our little students with some nice dance acts. Good to see that our initiative to offer free local dance classes leads to such nice results. Happy to have created some local employment for our motivated dance teacher!
