This project trains internally displaced youth and young mothers in regenerative agriculture while building the Wandusoa Ecological Learning Centre in Kamba, Mfou. Designed with Journeyman International, this campus features eco-classrooms, processing facilities, and seed vaults built from Compressed Stabilised Earth Blocks. Blending hands-on agroforestry with green infrastructure, we restore topsoil, eliminate food insecurity, and launch sustainable youth enterprises.
In Cameroon, 75% of arable land is severely degraded, putting displaced youth and young mothers on the front lines of food insecurity. While demand for regenerative agriculture training is rapidly growing, a critical lack of climate-resilient infrastructure persists. Without a permanent facility for hands-on learning, seed preservation, and value-addition processing, vulnerable rural youth cannot access the long-term resources required to heal soil and build economic security.
Partnering with Journeyman International, we are constructing a low-carbon Ecological Learning Centre in Kamba, Mfou, while running youth training academies. Built from Compressed Stabilised Earth Blocks (CSEBs), the campus features passive-cooling classrooms, an organic seed vault, and a commercial cassava processing unit. This living laboratory merges sustainable infrastructure with agroforestry, enabling scholars to master soil restoration, reduce losses, and process raw harvests.
Built on a modular, low-carbon grid design, the Kamba campus will expand training capacity to serve entire regional cohorts. The cassava processing hub and seed vault will anchor a self-sustaining cooperative economy-boosting local farm incomes by 40% and directly benefiting 10,000+ community members. This permanent infrastructure will seed a network of youth-led regenerative enterprises, sequestering carbon and securing permanent food sovereignty across central Cameroon.
