Organizzatore
Roddy’s Eco-Cover is a community-based organization founded in 2011 to champion environmental awareness with forestry as key concern
• The project was established by members of the local community with the aim of empowerment for the less fortunate members in the quest to tackle development challenges at the grassroots.
• Its major focus is on environmental concern to mitigate the effects of climate change and foster inter-cultural education among the local community
• The project is located at Ebuyangu village in Emuhaya constituency in Vihiga country that is situated in Western Kenya
• It is situated 430 Kilometers away from Nairobi city and its located in an area that is famed for cultural diversity due to the high population density
• The volunteers will be hosted in a homestead to experience cultural diversity and learn to live and interact with members of the host community in an atmosphere of cooperation and solidarity
• This project has hosted previously both local and international volunteers and it has great potential for the replication of its activities in equally challenging circumstances in other regions of Kenya.
