First meeting Farmers community

First meeting Farmers community

The first of September was the first meeting with stakeholders of the farmers community on the Islands Curacao and Bonaire. OceansX facilitator Amir Carmel hosted the meeting and guided everyone. After the meeting participants were positive about this initiative and will join the next meeting on the 15th of September 10 am Curaçao-time.

The OceansX way

To create movement, you need to know each other, know what’s on your mind. So the OceansX way is to answer the following questions:
– How do you feel?
– What’s keeping you busy?
– What can you do about it?
– How can the community help you?

Frustrations

Water and electricity are expensive, at some days there is no water. The barge (Coastline) can be a solution for that. Everyone agrees it’s better to be self sufficient and not to be dependent of food import.

Stronger together

Communities like these are important to learn from each other. Together you can accomplish more.

Next meeting

We’ll see each other on September 15 on Zoom, 10 am Curaçao-time and 16 am Amsterdam-time.
It’s an open meeting, join if you think it’s interesting for you.
