We seek to define the intangible qualities that make communities thrive. We look at future thinking, social and cultural capital, place-based learning, health, sustainability, inclusion and participation.
Welcome! FierySpirits is for activists and professionals who are building vibrant, resilient rural communities. Tell us a little about why you'd like to join?
I am currently working for the Grootbos Foundation, situated between Stanford and Gansbaai, in the South Western Cape in Gansbaai.
The Foundation runs a number of community upliftment projects which include the Green Futures Horticultural and Life Skills College and the Growing the Future Food Production and Life Skills College. These projects are aimed at uplifting the local communities though teaching the unemployed youth of the area a variety of skills.
About Me (areas of expertise/interest I can share)
I don't really have an area of expertise. My job varies widely, so I am the proverbial jack of all trades, but master of none.
My interest however lies in fynbos, conservation and permaculture.
