Desert Oasis Teaching Garden; Cultivating Ideas That Grow by kbeamish

Dear kbeamish, Thank you very much for your proposal on the “Youth action on climate change” contest. Your proposal was among the 15 which the Fellows pre-selected for the Judges but unfortunately, it didn’t make it to the semi-finals. The Judges appreciated that this was an exciting project, who allied education with land management in a holistic approach. However, by the scale of it, the (advanced) state of development and the fact that young people would be beneficiaries rather than implementers, the Judges felt that this did not fit into the criteria they were looking for. This contest is rather looking for early-stage projects that could be implemented by young people themselves. But, again, this is a tremendous project and we hope that it will get the success it deserves. Thanks again for your contribution, and best of luck in participating in future CoLab contests! Best, Antoine on behalf of the “Youth action” fellows
