a sustainable ecosystem regenaration vision for the savannah to survive climatet change
The Osotua Foundation combines Dieke's ideas, experiences and knowledge which she accumaulated while living and working in the savannas ofAfrica for a greeater part of her life. During her visits to the savannas over the years, Dieke observed their accelerated deterioration, expecially within the last 10 years. Her passion for this ecosystem urges her to support its inhabitants in making it future-proof. She believes that Ecology, Economics and Anthropology are essential components in achieving this goal holistically. With the help of her board members and adivsors she is making this dream a reality!
