If we can take the concept of the SEED Initiative
and that is: to spread the knowledge
There are thousands of people like this
sitting all over the world
They have the ideas, they have the energy,
they have the capacity
and just build a movement from grassroots upwards
that's what we must do
My name is Arno Faul
In the local language I'm called Mothusi
I couldn't envisage before I came what it's going to mean
but now I've seen the little market
where everyone put up their things
and I'm so excited because you see so many ideas
so many initiatives and so much optimism
I think basically we've got all the answers here
and just to be able to be regenerated,
to see other people doing the same thing...
I've got enough energy now to go on for the next 15 years, non-stop, flying
I'm Arindam Dasgupta from India
Suzana Moreira, Founder and CEO of moWoza
My name is Nolbert Muhumuza
I'm the president of Awamu Biomass Energy
My name is Zisanda Nkanjeni
I'm from Duncan Village Secondary Recycling Cooperative
I'm Irene Hofmeijer, the founder of Life Out Of Plastic, L.O.O.P.
What we're trying to show through our products, is that you can have a value chain, fully based out of recycling
Duncan Village Recycling Cooperative is capturing bio-waste
from the households
To have recognition, to have an Award for Low Carbon, which is by SEED, this is amazing
This gives us hope, it gives us courage
It gives us a push to keep improving our stove,
to keep working hard to increase access to our firestoves
in Uganda and in East Africa
to offer sustainable solutions to our local populations
