Case study: Moyori’s eco-paradise in Bangladesh
‘It’s so nice that it’s all planted in our own house, and we grow these vegetables ourselves.’ Moyori, Bangladesh
Moyori, 19, is a student and lives with her family in an eco-village in southern Bangladesh, an area impacted by the climate crisis.
Moyori's mum worked with local experts from the CAFOD-funded Bangladesh Association for Sustainable Development to learn about organic fertilisers and sustainable gardening
Moyori works alongside her mother in the garden and has even learnt how to make organic fertiliser. She told us:
‘The resulting organic vegetables in our garden have fulfilled our family’s nutritional needs, and it has made us more economically independent as well.
‘I feel safe eating all the food that we grow, which is a really great thing. It gives me a sense of achievement as well, to be able to do this.’
Moyori is also a member of the NextGen group, meeting with other young adults to discuss the climate, environment, natural disasters and how to farm in harmony with nature.
This gift is part of our Farming fund.
