Find an update on the impact of last month’s campaign below and donate to this campaign to unlock the funds from Sweatcoin for this month! The 12 month hunger project has started and thanks to last month’s campaign, the first ‘Life Garden Workshop’, initiated by Thrive in partnership with InSIDE NE and sponsored by Sweatcoin, was conducted in Thankanphai Village, Saikul. Month One: - 40 participants from diverse backgrounds, many impacted by communal conflict in Manipur, Northeast India attended the Life Garden Workshop, focused on nutrition and garden management in limited land availability. - Practical and education sessions took place teaching soil preparation using the double-digging technique, compost-making and organic pesticide preparation. - The demonstration garden created during the workshop has already benefitted approximately 91 individuals and contains 30 crop varieties, including high-nutrition leafy vegetables such as kale, collard greens, broccoli, bok choy, and eggplant, supplementing the community's diet. - The workshop addresses food security and improves mental health through positive thinking. Further Impact 🤩 - Participants were eager to implement techniques and already two more Life Gardens have been established in Panjang and Saikho. - A Follow-up workshop in Phainom village had 35 attendees. - Quote from a participant: "I have been gardening my whole life, but the techniques and skills I have learned from this workshop are not only scientific but also systematic and economical. I will now ensure that I execute them correctly and share my experiences with my neighbours."
