Bio-diversity

The planning grant will facilitate the preparation of a project proposal for the restoration of a wetland habitat near the village of Santigron. For an adequate restoration of the swamp, experts are needed who can plan and describe a professional reconstruction in advance. The foundation does not have the knowledge and expertise in order to draw up the execution plan for the rehabilitation of the swamp. It is about the preparation of the project on several levels, technically as well as with the aid of the human involvement of the villagers. The project idea arose from talks with the villagers who indicated that there was a large supply of food when the swamp still existed. There is the notion that if the swamp is rehabilitated, flora and fauna will restore themselves.
