Strengthening Communities: Connecting Ecology and Generational Resilience with Alfusainey Sey from People's Coast Ecovillage Network

  • Summary

  • Welcome back to Community Resilience, a podcast created in collaboration with the Ecovillage Resilience 2.5 Degree Project, facilitated by the Global Ecovillage Network.

    Today we meet Alfusainey, a dynamic leader and passionate advocate for sustainable development. Trained in Permaculture Design and Ecovillage Development, Alfusainey is the operations director at Sandele Foundation, where he oversees innovative projects in briquette making and compost production. His IT expertise was pivotal in the establishment of the People's Coast Ecovillage Network, which proposes a transformative development model for the coastal zone from Carfontine, Senegal to Kachuma, Gambia. This network places communities at the heart of development, addressing ecological challenges, fostering social and economic opportunities, creating long-term wealth and employment, and promoting regional cooperation.

    Currently serving as a network secretary, Alfusainey is also a key figure in the NextGEN Africa leadership.

    Join us as we explore his journey in conservation, restoration, and organic farming, and learn how he's driving the Ecovillage movement forward in the Gambia.
