Uganda Project

Diane Reiner, a long time member of the Earth Embassy team, is in Uganda this month working with street children. Last year on her first trip to Africa, he met a young man Ronnie, a former street child of Kampala, who is now working with 30 homeless children to organize education, clothes, food and housing for them. Ronnie is organizing the kids into a music and comedy performance team, to give them skills and the means to support themselves.

We are hoping to support Diane and Ronnie with our network of permaculture development people in Africa.

Ringo, the guest permaculture expert who has been helping on the Mt Fuji farm, is also going to Uganda next year. He will be working with two groups, Children of Uganda and Permaculture Across Borders.

We are hoping to bring these various projects together and organize a small farm and guest house in the capital Kampala for Ronnie and his kids to use as a home base, education center and income source.

Diane's photos will be on display at RPI university this month and next.
