The IDEAS DRC Team is growing with empowered volunteers and incredible leaders in the environmental movement. The Branch leaders Eliode Bakole and Daniel Mastaki have been leading incredible Hive meetings to educate their community on environmental issues and mobilize them in action projects. Their impact in the community throughout the past year has been increasing as they continue to implement long term climate solutions.

The team is restoring the gap between human and wildlife relationships by planting trees throughout the streets of Buvaku, while educating volunteers on the need for this action. This work is not only healing the soil, air and water quality, but also educating individuals on how to implement climate action.

They have hosted a series of Hive meetings and clean ups to address the waste problem in their water ways. They have also identified the need for local food sources. They are satisfying this need through their recently implemented community garden with four plots of produce including eggplant, green peppers and cabbage. This garden also includes an animal agriculture pen to raise guinea pigs. This garden is also being utilized to train the next generation of sustainable farmers.
