THE DOMBOSHAVA COMMUNITY PROJECT - 'Back to our roots'
Climate change is a global reality that has serious consequences if Ignored. The future generations are at risk, if we do not play our part in taking care of the environment. Inequality, Food security and Food waste is a global phenomenon affecting vulnerable economies such as Zimbabwe. Worldwide a massive amount of food is produced and wasted worldwide, whilst resources are mismanaged causing environmental degradation on the plane. Living off grid and practising a more sustainable way of farming and water conservation especially water harvesting will help heal our land and replenish our soils. Everything in the environment is connected like a giant 'cell' therefore, we need to rethink and refocus on viable ways to protect the environment which feeds us.
Fishers Ecotourism is a social entrepreneurship providing support in food security by increasing agricultural productivity in the Domboshava Village Community of Zimbabwe. The aim is to bridge the gap of inequality and increase the income of the agricultural households. Water, Land, Seeds and a viable market will help the households to achieve their goals. A model that can be adopted by many.
