I don’t fit into many boxes, am a creative climate change activist and a lawyer focused on achieving sustainable development goals through rural futurism. I work with rural women in Northern Uganda to combat climate change using a green business approach where the women profit from the trees in their compounds thus encouraging them to plant more trees.
This idea gave birth to Keri naturals a green business idea run on Shea nut trees and moringa trees. My greatest hope is to empower communities using Keri naturals as a model set up to achieve sustainable development goals through rural featurism.
My priority goals are sDGs 13 ( Climate action), 1 (No poverty), 5 (Gender equality), and 8 ( Decent work and economic growth)
