The Blue Economy - From Pulp to Protein, Gunter Pauli about Chido Govero

Chido Govera is an admirable and dynamic young lady from Zimbabwe. She is in her mid-twenties and has committed herself to fighting poverty and malnutrition in the Southern hemisphere of the planet.

From her childhood on, after the death of her mother at the age of seven, Chido had to live the hardship of poverty, hunger and abuse. At such short age she already had to face the situation of being head of a family and take care of her grandmother and brother. Chido learned from her grandmother how important it is to know about nature and its cycles. She joined her in collecting mushrooms during the rainy season, which were essential to feed the small family. As is the case of most African orphans, her relatives were unable to support their daily struggle for survival.
