HI I am Steven Jones, a permaculture teacher based in Wales with a long history of teaching and developing permaculture projects in Uganda.

Deborah, (top row second left) stands proudly with her TAPA commnunity regional permaculture group members.

Over the years I struggle to recall a more effective and dedicated teacher and community leader than Deborah Aluka. She of Teso district Uganda, has trasformed her local community and far beyond since she completed her training with the S39/ EUPO permaculture team in 2020.

She has accomplished so much in 3 short years

Establsihed the TAPA regional support group
Inspired households to garden, to diversify crops and incomes and try out new ideas
Pioneered and promoted the low energy, Lorena stove a mudblock rocket-style smokeless cook stove, to 1000's of households
Developed food forests and community gardens in local schools, villages and compounds as educational tools
Inspired and transformed so many people by thow them the possibilities creaed through permacutlure design.
Established a network of up to 50 villages with a real interest taking permaculture much further forward in their comunities

She needs our help to pay off school fees, something that constantly hangs over and nags her family. She and her Husband have 2 bright kids who are achieving well in school and with fees to pay that for her feels like a fortune, are easily within reach of this crowdfunder. Please help if you can!

You will be hearing more from us, Deborah and the TAPA team as we are working with partners to plan and delver a full Permaculture Design Course there within the next year. Watch this space!
