Growing an Environmental Movement in Cameroon
Here we explore how to grow an environmental movement through a remarkable case study from the city of Bamenda in Cameroon. You’ll hear the remarkable story of an initiative started in the grassroots over 27 years ago that has since led to a powerful initiative that puts local community front and center of decision making to provide safe drinking water for all. Learn how Farmer Tantoh started this work, milestones archived along the way, and details on current projects which now receive active support from local adminsitration. Such projects include establishing an eco village establishment to reconnect city dwellers back to ecological lifestyles and above all the Farmer Tantoh New Village Environmental Movement which aims to relocate passionate young people (Farmer Tantoh Fellows) back to their villages to engage in green initiatives.
