Konkankoh (Joshua) Ngwa is the founder and director of the Bafut Ecovillage, Cameroon, which provided opportunities for local youth to learn about regenerative agriculture - until it was burnt down this year. He is also a political activist for Defend the Sacred with the Tamera Project and a Global Ecovillage Network ambassador.
After studying Mass Communication and Environmental Journalism, he worked for 22 years in the National Social Security Department of Cameroon but left in 2004 to devote himself to youth/environment/peace activism, with a focus on the Sustainable Development Goals and transitioning African villages to resilience.
Join us as we discuss how permaculture can become a crime when it clashes with the interests of multinationals, permaculture through an African lens, and the importance of engaging youth with anything we do.

The Story Anew is a podcast and video series in which we'll meet amazing people from all over the world who are working to redefine the dominant narrative of our times - that of infinite growth and consumption. These are the people working towards what Joanna Macy calls The Great Turning - the shifting of our Industrial Growth Society, which prioritises infinite growth over life - to a Life Sustaining Society.
The people you'll meet are working in regeneration, activism, systems design, permaculture, trauma healing, decolonisation, climate change and generally working to fundamentally change the way we do things as a species so that we can live on this planet more harmoniously with our fellow beings and become good ancestors.
