22 November. Barefoot night run as part of the European Week for Waste Reduction.
As part of the European Week for Waste Prevention, the largest communication campaign on the topic of waste prevention, we are running barefoot again. The motto of EWAV 2024 is: ‘Down to the last crumb: use food responsibly’. This year, we have organised our campaign together with Über den Tellerrand e.V., an association that promotes the social participation of people with refugee experience through culinary activities, among other things.

June 2024 Barefoot hiking in Darmstadt. A solidary event with “Nascente Viva” project as part of the enviromental week.
In June we had the environment week, in our project “Nascente Viva” in Dourados, Brazil. The pupils of the indigenous schools Guateka and Tengatuí, where the project is based, experienced different events around sustainability along the month:
1. Visit to SANESUL the city sewerage company, to understand the whole process water goes through until the final use.
2. At school many speeches were made around sustainability, care of water resources, the effects of the use of pesticides for the environment, the correct handling of waste and causes and consequences of global warming
The teachers Cléber, Istela, Mary, Kelly, Kamylla, Kaléo, Simone, Cajetano and Kátia were involved as well as IMAM (Environment Institute) and the universities UFGD and UEMS.

01.05.24 Fire in our project Nascente Viva. August.24 the replanting completed!
Unfortunately there was a big fire in our project. Half a hectare was burnt, the trees were barely 1 year old. We have to thank a resident, Seu Roberto, that it didn’t get worse. He immediately called the fire brigade and until they arrived, he tried to put out the fire with a watering can! Even though it was bad, it caused great solidarity throughout the indigenous village, and the indigenous village chief (red T-shirt) expressed his feelings to us personally. And life goes on: the replanting of the area was fully completed in August 2024.
