About the Initiators

Caroline Moraza

Berlin

Currently I am a research associate at Humboldt-Universitaet Berlin. I was in Kenya for the first time in 2015, and during my second stay this year I had the pleasure to get to know CSHEP. Locally managed organizations like CSHEP are exactly what Kenya needs to achieve goals like change, environmental protection and food security!

Ich arbeite am Seminar für Ländliche Entwicklung (SLE) an der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin zu Ernährungssicherung und Klimawandelanpassung. So unterstütze ich in meiner Forschung insbesondere die Förderung von Kleinbauern in Kenia und anderen Ländern. Esther und Steven kenne ich seit 2 Jahren. Ich bewundere ihre Kraft und Ausdauer, ökologische Gemüsegärten mit Kleinbauern aufzubauen.
