Hello WildHub community,

My name is Lloyd Kujingo, Treasurer of the Bunda Environmental Club (BEC) at LUANAR, Malawi. I’m sharing our semester plan to connect with others for collaboration, mentorship, or support on our conservation and community work.

As passionate student conservationists, we are excited to share our action plan for the upcoming semester. Our focus is on renewable energy, innovation, clean-up activities, and alternative livelihoods that can empower rural communities and contribute to environmental sustainability.

🌿 Bunda Environmental Club (BEC) – Plan for Next Semester (July–December 2025) Empowering Communities through Renewable Energy, Innovation & Clean Environments

📝 Our Plan Includes:

  1. Promotion of Renewable Energy

    • Identify and work with a specific rural village.

    • Conduct community sensitization and education on the use and benefits of renewable energy before implementation.

  2. Biochar Briquette Initiative

    • Collaborate with engineering students to introduce biochar briquettes as clean alternatives to charcoal.

    • Train local people to make and use briquettes, reducing deforestation.

  3. Training in Environmental Data Collection

    • Train members and youth on statistical tools and software packages for data collection and analysis.

  4. Clean-Up Campaign

    • Organize a community clean-up to raise awareness on waste management and promote environmental hygiene.

  5. Innovation Hub

    • Create a space for youth to develop green ideas and climate-smart innovations.

  6. Beekeeping for Livelihoods

    • Introduce beekeeping as a model to support income generation and forest conservation.


🤝 What We’re Looking For:

We are currently seeking:

  • Collaboration with conservation-focused institutions or student groups

  • Technical advice or training support

  • Donors/sponsors for tools, beehives, or briquette equipment

If you're interested in collaborating, please reach out:

Together, we can power change from the grassroots.

Best regards,
Lloyd Kujingo

Hi Lloyd, and thank you @Thirza Loffeld 

I create and teach online courses in data analysis and visualisation skills for conservationists. I'm working towards releasing all of my learning materials under an open licence, so that anyone can study them, or use them in their own teaching

You can see VerdantLearn's upcoming courses and self-study resources at https://verdantlearn.com/learn/

Perhaps I could offer a free place on an upcoming course for someone in Bunda Environmental Club, in return for your insight into what training challenges you and your colleagues face?

Would you like to email me at lucy.tallents@verdantlearn.com so we can schedule a chat?

Best wishes,

Lucy
