You're a little bit better than that.

Hi everyone, what's up? Welcome, welcome.
Welcome guys, welcome, welcome.
Thank you so much for starting this space quickly today. We had a small technical snap over time today where we got run just before we were going to make the transition to this space.
But luckily we have some loyal regions in the house who followed up who understood where the next space was and came here to support us. So thank you guys for joining back again. We'll just wait for a couple of minutes. We'll see if Jamie also joins us.
All good at your end also, fam.
All good on my end. How are you guys? Good, good. Had a good start to the week. Not a bad one. I have no complaints. I have no.
I think my only complaint would be the cold around here. Where are you right now?
Nairobi. Oh wow, what's the temperature like over there? Is it like in single digits or?
No, I think we just exaggerate here and it is something like 18 but wow, we are not used to it. I can relate. I'm also from
very humid side of the country. So it's pretty hot otherwise and I complain at the smallest of temperature changes. Just not used to it.
So how was this space? What were you guys talking about? I wasn't able to log on to that. Yeah, well, we were having a very wide discussion mainly about gas feces, one topic that I don't think so anyone's gonna shut up about it for some time now.
And then that we were having an interesting conversation with three tales on how he was exploring his team is exploding into getting into hemp production as well. And we have in those conversations with Jimmy before the space got
truck and Jimmy was just, you know, we were almost about towards the tail end of the conversation. We were just talking about how hard it was to, you know, get these tree planting rides here in India. Like if you have to go and grow mangroves
over here in India, it's a long process and we're in different parts of the world, it's a different process altogether. And Jimmy used to tell us how in I'm not sure if it's Uganda or Tanzania, but I think one of these nations he was able to
arrange a documentation that would allow and to plant trees within a day. So I was kind of, you know, amazed at which the rate that which you know some countries move when it comes to protecting resources and it's just you can't really blame
individual or generalized like that the entire community but still like you you do realize right the governments and power this always a lot of money that's in play in such kind of developing nations so it's a bit difficult here at Mayan so we're just having these kind of conversations so far
Well, that's quite interesting. Does that even include how we manage forests? I'd like to know how you guys are able to manage forests like India. It's not something that I would say that's my strength.
to discuss on because I don't really understand the ground reality right now. I do have like someone in my team who manages the ops on ground and he might be the right person to answer it but from whatever I have gathered so far it's it all comes down to you
the land is, if it's a forest land, it's most of the time owned by the government itself and they do have put in good measures to protect the land that we have right now like all the national parks and the wildlife research
around the country right now is being managed decently except for a few of them where you time from time and again you will hear reports like you know Dan was being tried for tourists to come through and I think these are common problems even in Africa.
But I'm not one who enjoys these kinds of safaris because I know most of the animals that I spot during some of those safaris that are closer to the roads may be drugged and it's not right in any way to put them in that condition.
But at the same time like to answer your question like managing forest is something that is taken care by the government itself and most likely what happens is I think there's a common thing even in Africa where in the communities that live close to the forest
have a very big role in preserving the forest land and the communities always allow to live around the forest area also wherein they because these guys, these are the communities that actually make use of these resources directly from the
forest most of the time. So they are dependent on it. You could say they are both of these communities human settlements and the forest is co-dependent to each other. That's somehow it's a good relationship over here in India. That way.
Great staff one. How does it work at your end of the world? Actually, it's quite interesting here because the conversation now we are having is one where the government is considering opening up for
rest for agricultural activities. So I think the communities that are living next to the forest would be allowed to carry out some agricultural activities in the forest. And well that's a very interesting conversation. Happy
here because where we are coming from is at some point we had to fight for this forest to be safeguarded because they were going through a lot of harvesting. So Kotlopp point where that was stopped but now we are considering bringing
So I don't know whether it's going to give the same consequence it did last time or we're going to see a difference in consequence. That's why I'm actually looking to see how other countries are handling that line, how these communities
access the forest and I able to get that return from whatever activities and at the same time the forest is protected. Yes, I was just going to come to your treatise. I do want to know how does it work in Brazil last year.
Wow, this is amazing to talk about that. So I feel
I feel very sad that they are considering to let those environments in the hands of
the agricultural farmers. If they don't do this right, you know, will be just a lot of the first station. We actually fight a lot with this
in Brazil. So the last government, Bolsonaro, government, actually the guy was incentivizing people to de-force
in order to manage cattle or soybean, which is used mainly to as food to this cattle. So it was a lot of damage.
But now things are going to, are starting to be controlled here. Like, even the, the land of the indigenous, the traditional population of Brazil.
even their land were being harvested. And still are harvested for wood and for like special
mean the roles like
gold and other special things.
And here we are struggling a lot with this, but we can see some small changes. So there is a financial institution which is Brazil Bank. Basically this financial institution is
works like a mother to the big farmers because they have a lot of credit to help them expand their productions. But now they did a partnership with our
institution, climate institution that have a satellite that can see what's happening in the ground and can
the amount of the first station that some big farmers are doing in real time and if they track that there were the first station in a region, the crest or these
farmer is immediately blocked. So basically if farmers keep the forest dating here in Brazil they will lose access to their you know biggest
source of credit. I think that this is a good thing to control how those big farmers are interacting with the forest.
Nevertheless, there are other ways of interacting with the force. So the agroforest movement itself, it's a movement that enhances the capability of generating food in
inside the forest. So you are, you know, catalyzing that ecosystem, bringing a lot of energy and this is great for the whole ecosystem, the animals
the soil itself which is alive being you know you should consider soil alive being because it reaches and you should nurture soil as this alive being so
By doing AgroForest, we actually could go inside the forest and produce more food, extract things in a conscious way, always reproducing
something some special to our community. So, you know, it's basically change the mindset. We need to change the mindset. And if you, if you,
some research about Brazil. There are some point of views that say that Brazil is one of the countries that preserve the most our force because every farmer needs
needs to maintain 20% of their land as a natural reserve, which is like a forest. You cannot touch 20% of your land as a farm. This is for everybody. So this is
Great, nevertheless, these don't block people from the forest taking, taking putting fire. And yeah, this is the situation around here and I hope that you guys are not facing things like that.
So just a question, is that 30% like set in the law?
Sorry, it cut a little for me. Can you repeat with it? I'm asking whether that 30% requirement for farmers to maintain naturally is set in the law.
20% that they need to keep.
and they cannot touch and it's like verified.
In the law, as how do you actually ensure that farmers now keep up to that 30% is it by the risk of them losing part of the credit or do you
have like a police force that goes monitoring, or is it just the goodness of farmers to ensure that that 30% is meant?
Yeah, there is some institutions that verify this. So in order to have a
farm, a farmer's license, you need to have this in your end, but we know that powerful people don't get verified. This is the reality. So basically,
That is a law, but the law don't work. This is the whole problem with Brazil. We have a lot of fault.
good opportunities, but people are only interested in learning more and extracting more. I think that this mindset comes in our
our colonization of Brazil was meant to be a nation, was meant to be just a place that you could harvest the most you can and take it to Europe which were the center
of the world at that time. So yeah, this mindset, it's like a culture. There is no, the elite in Brazil, the powerful ones, they
think about themselves more correlated with the United States or Europe than Brazil itself. So it's crazy. The production of cattle is just to export.
It's not a production to actually give food to the whole population and securities. So, these small farmers, they produce more than 70 percent.
of the food that the population of Brazil consume because the big ones they on produce drug sport, you know, there is no intention of producing anything to the country.
itself. So this mentality is hard, but the Agroforest movement, which we call the Neal Hurraus, the Neal Horais, which are people from the city that they had
enough from the city, but they are also more aware of knowledge and how to use it in their favor. These people are moving to the countryside
and really making the difference. Start planting with the AgroForest concept, regenerating the whole ecosystem and making living out of it. So this is the
the good part of the
of this, you know, people are doing their small movement, little by little. And I think that this is going to
to make a huge change in the end. It's like what we are doing here, you know, planting seeds and nurturing this relationship.
That is really great stuff. I think it's a nice way to start this space by learning actually. I think I'm learning so much about Brazil that I may not have had context on. Yeah, so thank you for that.
it's always unknown I have in you think we have PINCEV. PINCEV would you like to tell us something? Oh yeah definitely nice to meet you guys but like I'm not really sure if I could like continue the conversation
with like farming and things like that. The PINSafe project is open source in open source and web3 social rounds. But I'm more than happy to listen to you guys about other topics I guess.
Okay, so I'd really like to hear what you are doing. So let's just start there. Let's just open it up for you. What tell us something? Okay, like I think like the open server
open source community is pretty popular right now so I would really appreciate if you kind of talk more about the climate change on for example which is probably
more deserving than open source one.
I would also like to invite anyone who would like to join us here. There are a couple of guys who would like to support this conversation. But yeah, we are now talking about open source. So really could you just, for those of us who may not be as tech-saviors, you are?
just take us through the journey of open-source singing. Why we're going to be interested in this piece? Pinsive. Okay, I will try. This is very, very like, lowered question and this is really difficult, but I will try. And just like
please tell me if you think that I'm doing something wrong. I'm not the cloud of the group, I guess. The open source community is very vital for the development of technology and the space overall.
because for example companies like Instagram, right, like the Facebook, maybe like the Pinterest and other social media giants, they have their codebase closed. So we don't really know what's going on with under the technology, right? And similar
Why the user should care about it. We don't really know what's going on with their data. As the users of Facebook, Instagram and the social media platforms like Twitter, we don't really know to do these applications, track us. Do they know our
our granular data can they like hire mass in any way and we're just trying to tackle these issues with the open source community because we will publish the code so people can actually know what we're
using what we're doing with web application. And to me this is very, very vital because like I was born in Russia and people are just forced to have a certain opinion despite what the common sense says, right? They are forced
to believe that the white is black and black is white. And yeah, to me this is very, very, very important personally because I'm pretty sure by open sourcing these projects, we can provide more transparency and exchange information. Yeah.
It's quite interesting that you brought up Russia. To be honest, I'm pretty sure people in Russia right now
are just like suffering a lot from like the the dictatorship right and they have no they just cannot have like any sort of opinion on anything because otherwise there will be
the sense of jail, something like that. And I sent the full support to Ukraine. I think the ideas are more support than the rest of it, actually.
Okay, so in terms of open sourcing from what I picked up it's all about controlling our data. They get that right. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely. It's about controlling it.
the data and for example, like these companies, they collect the data on your activity on their social network and then they send this data to other companies so they take the game money and
None of it comes back to you. For example, on Twitter right now, you have to pay a monthly fee, right? Elon Musk doesn't say anything about him collecting the data and monetizing it. This is not fair.
Just go and I think you are on to something. So please convince me why I should be concerned about open source. I understand it's about my data but then I don't think I have that much data. So how would you deal with someone like me? Someone who does not think they should be concerned about
open sourcing. I'm pretty sure you can survive without sharing that much data. But the experience of, I think, the experience would be much
much more interesting and it was much more engaging if people were able to share what they're really fascinated about and what are their ideas that would allow for greater collaborative experience.
And I'm really excited with OpenSource, and I think the future of technology is openSource because it just provides more trust and better experience overall.
Okay, I agree with you that the future of technology is definitely open source. And what would you tell someone who is now interested in joining this space? Where do I start from? Do I just walk in and see that now we are open sourcing and I do
not know what's next so where would I start? What would be a typical starting project? I think to be honest you could probably just like walking and be like I'm an open source project and yeah that would be probably enough but like
something like people. Yeah, like honestly, like you could probably do something like this. But like, but like people would probably ask you like more questions about like, for example, where is your code? Like, how do you store the data? And it's just very easy, for example, to store the code on
like on the platform like GitLab or GitHub and you just kind of like go to the some of these files, you kind of like copy the links to them and be like, "Oh, here's this function, here it how it works." And yeah, but like generally for example it's very easy
to just to just open source the project is just that for example big big like corporations like Facebook and Twitter they gain more kind of money by closing closing and access to it and it's just unfair.
Well, that's great. I think you really opened up my eyes because I knew there was an open source community but I did not know how they came together. Have you been in the space for long enough? Have you made friends there?
What do you think now of ReFi space is now that you're here with us? I absolutely love the ReFi space. I think to be honest, it has more
community and community reach overall. But like the developers of open-source, they are really really introverted and for them it's very difficult to just join a theory space and talk about their project.
Because they would rather code something something very very very difficult, right? Rather than talk to real people. And this is like a huge problem for open source projects as well.
After you say that, I think we have to invite Jimmy now, because Jimmy that I think is compliment to you, you can see the effort in terms of making the Refi space open to the rest is spaying off. What do you think Jimmy?
Yeah, he might take a couple of minutes to join in from what I have experienced with him over the past half an hour. But he has to answer that one goes I think
he's been doing a great job though. It's good to recognize his effort. Yeah, but then we go on as we are waiting for Jimmy. Is there anyone else in the space who'd like to come on up?
I would like to add something before we move on to someone else. Like Pinsay, you were saying it's harder for the developers who are building in open source community to come out and reach out to me by community, but then something that we are trying to promote.
the most is this cross-promotional between drums. And if you do know builders who are willing to, you know, they, I know specifically my own team itself, I know there's a lot of introverted builders who are, you know, looking at their screens and they just us love it. And it's, it's
really hard to even make a conversation like how you correctly mentioned that you know they might be shy to just come up to the stage and speak a few words about their project and stuff. But that's what we are trying to build over here. We want to make sure that everyone's included in this party and you know it should be
one effort as a whole regenerating whether it be builders, whether it be community leaders, whether it be you know voices within the ReFi space. ReFi isn't complete without the builders obviously and it's a collective effort that we'll have to do to encourage new projects and new builders to come through
to the community also. So I think it's just a matter of time because we've seen a lot of builders come up this way but again we just need to one second guys. Rain is also disrupting a few of
my connection over here. So I'm extremely sorry but yeah I just wanted to add that point so if you do know builders who are new to space do welcome them to our spaces do welcome them to the Gitcoin radio we need more more community members over here and it's it's always gonna be a party if there are more people
I keep on saying that we are here for the party. Maybe others could join us. I think we are more than open to expand this space. So what about your friends, Pinzeo? Do you think they'd been interested in RFi?
your friends all in red. I think all of my friends are in red fire right now. I've tried to convince some of my builder friends to join like Twitter, Twitter spaces. I've looked at the Twitter accounts.
And they don't even post anything from their personal opinion, they just kind of like read with the papers, like academic papers, maybe some ideas. I don't know, it kind of feels like they don't even have their own opinion on anything. Yeah, it's not fun.
You just hug around here and you'll make friends who heavily on Twitter so they'd be really excited to have you. I'm sure with your open source solutions you could teach us a couple of things that we may not be really
away of I am just trying to add a little while here. I am sure he has something to say. While El Zafan is doing that I would request the entire group to please retweet
the space. You can see the chat button at the bottom right of your screen. If you click the chat button, it will directly lead you to the space link. Please like and repeat the space so that we get more folks here. And let's keep this space running for another half an hour.
we all make the switch to the next one. In the meantime, I think ReWild should get their request to speak. Also, as a fan could you try sending three gens a request as well? I think Jimmy is behind that page now.
3G and send. I don't know why I'm unable to approve rewild. Schemia minute. But yeah, thanks for that solar punk. I keep on forgetting to request you guys to do that. No, that's why you have the guilt to support you every step of the way. Don't worry about it.
I think with time I'll get used to it. Yes. So what's happening at Ostrom? All good? Are you guys doing well? Does Bitcoin run? Personally, I am choosing not to
follow up in that area. So I have no idea how we are doing. I'm just enjoying the friendships that I'm making. I think I'm going to concentrate on that maybe towards the end of the week. But yeah, I think we're doing fine. Last
that was not bad so yeah strong is fine on gitcoin in my opinion that is hoping we are doing enough to help ourselves as well as help the rest absolutely we have I think
Is that Carlos behind the three beach Carlos if you do would like to come up on stage to send us a request it would love to have you speak as well So real wild I just sent you an invite to speak hope you're
able to see it? I think for some reason I'm not able to argue. Do we have him here? No, I think he left. Not yet, not yet. It's going to be a long day with Jimmy I think today.
Reviled, if you can maybe exit the space and then rejoin again and maybe try it. I think it's a bug that I don't know how to fix this but this somehow helps everyone rejoining a space. So that's the best advice I could give you right now.
In the meantime, Elzafa and I wanted to know like I asked the same question in the previous space to Jimmy also. Yeah. Just if you did you come across any project that you actually came across for the first time and you felt like they were doing
really incredible work and you wanted to support that. Did you come across any project of that kind during this Git find round? Just give me a moment so that I can check out my cart because I think I have found a couple of projects that are pretty exciting that I do know about so
So, just check my card. Yeah, really exciting stuff on Github. First of all, the thing that I think we noted was we have a couple of projects from the Star-Freak and region that were able to make it to Github. And that was pretty, pretty,
interesting. I'm not sure if there's anyone here who would like to come up and speak from East Africa, but yeah we have a couple of projects that are pretty exciting across the region. Yeah.
I think also it's a fast weekend. So I had to really look at the rest of the projects. I was always like wow these is this is interesting coming from from from guys who
not even know each other this is our bond and it's really exciting to see that we are almost working on the same spaces almost having projects that are at a pretty similar or like digital
Gaea was pretty interesting for me in the climate round. I'm sure they I saw them the first time during I think Solana. This is around I think they want for Solana and it was pretty exciting stuff so to see them again in Gidcoin means they are moving.
I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be a good person. I am not going to be#
myself as their own ground lead. So really for us from what I'm doing is helping connect the community because the challenge we are facing here is that yeah these principles are all good but the community is not really engaging with them they have
no idea of how to access like the technologies we are talking about here. So, at Austro, I think that's a key role that I'm playing. I'm helping these communities interact with these technologies, with these tools that we are creating, such that now they can be able to stand on their own. For example,
When you talk about credits to a community and you're talking to a community leader what they see is just dollar signs they are going like okay yeah there is this thing of hard work that is also called carbon credits but I may not really know how it works
But it has gotten into my circles and now I know there's something called carbon credits. So now my role becomes okay, carbon credits work like this. Carbon credits are generated by this organization and this is how you can benefit from them. Once we're able to have that conversation
Now we can start building now the other concepts that we are working on. Web 3, blockchain, regeneration, words, community, engagements, strengthening these communities. Now all those follow. But really that, that
Convict to the community, I think is the key role that I'm playing at Austin. Thank you for sharing that. Like you said, it's always good to meet someone who's working on, understanding the problem of the community and you know, you're building the
basically from the ground up and I feel like that's the right way to build us up and it's really inspiring to meet something like this. Thank you for sharing that with the larger group. Yeah, thank you very much for giving me the chance. We always look
So if you ask me actually that has always been the emphasis from the word grow, how can we build it from the ground such that these concepts are no longer just concepts in like Peter's basis or in World 3 where we are now bringing it to the
That's why I was really excited to come across Abhannika. I think that's the name of the project that is doing some sort of school slash, moving bus that can be able to educate communities on this concept. I think that's another really exciting project that I've come
across or keep going. Yeah. I mean, I wish they were here to give us over years to what they're working on. But yeah, they're not. Some promising, promising work. One of the original founders of the Guild also.
good friends and they are doing some exceptional work. I think for me these are the exciting ones because they may not look like they are doing a lot but when it comes to onboarding that generation making that web 3 onboarding I think they'll be right there at the forefront. So pretty exciting stuff.
What about you, have you come across a project that you'd like to draw attention to? Yeah, so one project that I do wanted to give a shout out to is symbiotica. Like it's something that I read, I read their grand page and I actually personally
personally liked it but yeah but there are I'm still on the verge of reading all the grand pages so that's a research that I'm doing at a personal level because I've been this is probably my fourth round of Kidcoin funding that I'm doing from mine since I came across Kidcoin so this time around
I need to make sure that I give my support to the ones that actually matters. And there are a couple of projects that Carlos here with 3Bs also had referred to me to two Latin American projects if I'm not strong. And I'm yet to donate, to do my first donation as well, but then today we'll
be the first round of it. So hopefully I can find and target the right words. I'm still on the verge of finishing the entire research behind these project, what everyone's doing and reading up on each grant. So once that's done, hopefully I'll have a much clearer idea on which other projects to look out for.
and I'm sure we're going to be waiting for that list. I'm sure we're going to be waiting for that list. You can be really confident that we come out in the next few days. So once I do the research,
it's going to be a community effort. So I'm going to make sure that the rest of the community is aware of those projects. That's great. That's great work. You dig you and save a lot of us.
think we now have the wild ready to speak. Good afternoon, good morning, good evening, good night everybody, eyes everybody, here on this hill.
Hi, Dave. Hi. The plan is true. I don't know. Well, I'm just happy to be here. I'm here to say hi and be sure everybody's fine. And what's happening? What's going on? How is everyone's?
Everyone gets going grand green as everyone doing today being Monday the first day in the month of May and yeah lots of energy lots of energy I'm very excited to hear high colors high Atlantis and Fighters gang it's a pleasure to meet you
see all here again. Hi, Widow. How's everything going? Just checking on everyone to know how we are doing here. We are fine here or rather I am fine here. I think the rest can talk about
themselves. Yeah. How are you doing? I'm fine. I'm doing very well. It's been a very very sunny day today here in Nigeria. We just have to take lots of water to absorb the impact of the
heat here or it's fine I'd like to know more about I don't know I know I'm not early for this space I plan coming back I'm their plan all strong I'm sorry it can you just help me give a recap of what you guys are all about I'm following you now
Okay, I think I can do that. So, Deepland Ostrom is really a team that has come together and what we are looking at is how we calculate the economic value of nature.
really here we are looking at the entire ecosystem and trying to find a way for communities to be able to value the ecosystem assets that they have. So let's say you are a community that is living next to a river and that river means something
to you that it may not mean for the next river. For example, you could be getting food from the river, you could be getting water, you could be getting water to irrigate and farm. So for that community, that river is not simply a natural resource, it has
a value that they would be willing to protect it for. So what we are asking at Ostrom is can we inform these communities of the value of their spaces, of the value of the natural resources they have and from there encourage them now to either grow that value
or to maintain that values is. So the current project we are running I think is able to break down the concepts that we are talking about. It's really a community located along Nairobi river in Nairobi. So this community has been taking, they are called the Kamukunjan
the R&B and they have been making steady progress trying to rehabilitate the parcel of land that they currently control as the land steward. So really the history of that site is very important because this is a historical site overall for
Kenya. It was an important site in the struggle of independence of the country. But even so, the story here is that over time that site was able to go into a state of degradation. So it was used for solid waste disposal. So with that came now, the
social evils that we experience from such spaces. So, crime went up, children were being run over by vehicles, those absolutely lack of open spaces for this community to enjoy. So, the community comes together and came up with that project that they would want to
to rehabilitate this area. So what time they've been able to rehabilitate it into an urban recreational park? And this park is being used by the greater community. It's not locked out to dogs who simply engage in the regenerative effort. So really, from the question we are asking
is this community has made this effort to rehabilitate the parcel of land. Is there a way we can show them the value that they have created from those efforts? I mean if you plant a tree and that tree grows to maturity and someone now is able to come to the path and enjoy
the shed of that tree. So we are asking this person who is enjoying the shed of the tree. What value did that tree give you? Why would you be willing to pay a particular price to ensure that one that tree is protected?
and two, another tree could be grown, but all that would have to start by, first of all, rewarding this community for what they have done. So that's the value we are talking about at Rostrum. Is it possible for us to give this community information in terms of economic value as to the economic
economic value they are engaging with or they are rehabilitating or they are protecting. Then now that community is in a better position to evolve. Go like, okay, this value from the trees we've planted for the past four, five years is X amount of shillings. If we continue with this trend,
trajectory in the next four or five years, it will be at this value. This is the difference that we will have made and that difference in our opinion at Ostrome needs to be converted into some sort of monetary benefit. So that this community now will consistently look at that
asset that they have created. Look at that asset they have regenerated and that asset is able to now allow them to access something like financial services. So it will no longer just be a project that they came together and is serving them in terms of giving children a space to play or
giving adults an outlaw space to come and enjoy. To be important because now this community in our opinion should be able to access financial instruments using this asset. So if you're saying that this 10-1/2 piece of land has an economic value of 10 million can you
for example, this community that is protecting this area should be able to access that 10 million benefits in terms of credit from a financial institution and use this asset that they have regenerated, this asset that they have protected as backing for that financial instrument.
I hope that brings in an aspect of what we are working on. Yeah, absolutely. It's amazing to see the initiative of trying to big people understand the value behind it.
the airport towards protecting our generating degraded community. And I see one very important thing that stands out especially one of the reasons why we want to also pursue regenerative is something you mentioned about
The historic importance and significance of natural habitat. Sometimes it's not even as though there are no other lands you could do but sometimes the effort is generally because what is lost in history
sometimes it's hard to regain and to recover. And I believe every nation on every country, part of the things that make them unique is their heritage and the history and the history is rooted back to the land where they started and how they are getting involved.
Still, something similar we are doing at ReWald, although a little bit divergent in the sense that we are probably trying to, we're not just focusing on maybe regeneration of the lands, also part of the project is also on a wide life.
and wildlife sites of things and what is really really an amazing idea really I do appreciate the work going on and that's also and I'm hopeful that especially being in Africa also I will be able to leverage on our independence
our complementary ideas, complementary approach tackling this degradation of lands, of the degradation of assets, we have that complementary collaboration, especially being that we
Kenya, South Africa and some other African regenerative projects. The pleasure is nice here. Again, the plan is working on kudos and we should all the best and everyone else the best. That's what we are doing. Well, from what I'm gathering, are you suggesting an African space?
because I would really love for us to have that. Is that what you're suggesting? Yes, the theme there is Carlos, although we've had, sorry I'm having a joke. So we've had African space but this is not supposed to be like the last.
It's not supposed to be like the last space basically, but is definitely something I'm open to have been able to discuss with like refinery goes and I'm also having that interest to building the energy around the regenerative project in Africa to
synthesize what we are doing and know where we can take advantage of each other in terms of complementary benefits, you know. And I think we would be able to make more impact, much more leveraging on each other's network across the continent and I believe it will be helpful. We could thank, let's see what
It's possible. Let's see what's possible definitely something I'm open to. We do over to you over to you. Sorry, just sorry for the disappointment Victor, but it's not good. It's getting from Atlanta. And so I'll open Gale today. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up. It's up.#
Thank you so much for taking us through what you're doing over there. I just came in to let the group know that our next space is upon the jumper tro. So within the next few minutes we would request you all to move on to the space. Wasabe is going to be hosting this next space.
and he's already started the space. So as a fun, I would request you or the person behind the plan to just stay back so that you can guide everyone to the next space. If that's something that you would do, then we could quickly wind the space up and then move it if you want to the next step.
Well guys, we've come yet another end of this space but it's always exciting to know that tomorrow we are going to be here. So let's head on to Wasabi Space. Coco now? Is it Coco now?
Yeah, it's Kokoda. Let's go. Preaching fighting stock. Yeah, actually also going to head there. So I think I'm going to leave Monish here and he will be able to push the rest. Monish, over to you.
Yeah, let's go over there guys.
So head on over there and we'll see you over there now. Thank you for attending this one. Thank you, thanks everyone.
Bye guys.
