 Thank you, Tembi. It is very difficult to convince a person who spent their entire life in a calm to participate in environmental causes and activities, orphans growing up during the war and relying only on food ratios, traumatize people returning home and looking at forests and trees only in terms of the product they gain from them. People suffering from dependency syndrome where anything given to them is not enough. It is difficult, but not impossible. The war began when I was just two years old. I grew up in the same camp and depended on the same food ratio. When I returned home, I saw how people decimated forests and hulans to gain fuel and income. And with that, I saw the potential of youth to make a change. But first let me give you a background of what happened. The government forces of Uganda and the Lord of the Sun Army, LRA, which was made popular during the Con 212 campaign, used a semi-scorched-hard policy during the 20 years war. The government forces cleared several kilometers on both sides of Iways and Security Road. They also went ahead and cleared several kilometers outside all the camps. They were actually setting fire in the Ulan for 20 years, every dry season, and you can imagine the impact on biodiversity and forest regeneration. The rebels also occupied the forest. Of course, that was their best place and got engaged in massive lumbering and charcoal production to exchange ammunition with Sudanese government. The communities also would escape from the calm and would be escorted to go to the nearby Ulan to get some charcoal, I mean to make some charcoal to supplement the little food ratio they were given in the camp. When the gun was getting silent and people were returning back to their homes, there was already another war, which I call climate change and global warming. That even impacted the poor returners who went back home. The rainfall was already unpredictable and erratic. There was too much heat and wind and wild wind. Water was very scarce because the watershed had already been degraded. For a station project, we have little success because of the strong wind, which actually affected the rate of evapotranspiration. There were poor crop harvest for the returners who went back home. It happened when there was poor harvest. They went back into the nearby Ulan to make a living, to realize a livelihood. They were cutting trees, timber and charcoal massively. But unfortunately they were not willing to hear anyone talk about sustainable utilization. They were not willing to hear anyone talk about getting involved in tree planting or even reforestation. The power of youth involvement in our landscape changed this perception and is the center of my transformative story today. In Uganda, people involved in natural resources, jobs in natural resources are old people. The youth were not given the opportunity, but I was lucky among the many youth. I was given the opportunity. When I was given the opportunity, I realized that if I was to achieve, if I was to restore that landscape which was upgraded for 20 years, then the best partner should be the youth. I needed the youth so much because I realized that of course with my interaction with them, I realized that they have a natural curiosity about science and environment. That was where I built from. That was where I began this story. I realized that it was very easy to train a youth. They never asked me for training allowance. They never asked me for transport refund, but there are adults who were drinking in the camp for 20 years. When you call them for training, the first thing they would ask for transport refund in our language, we call it Udongdut in our language, the laws. They were asking for that. Which money wasn't there? We had a problem. I mean a youth will look at the problem. A youth is interested in the solution to the problem. In reaching the youth, I realized that the youth were eager to contribute their energy to change our landscape which became degraded. There was information, very good information on conservation, real forestation, landscape. But I realized one thing. This information was not well tailored for a traumatized person who spent 20 years in war. This information was not tailored for this youth who never went to school for 20 years. The first thing that I did with my colleagues, my fellow youth, was to simplify this information to touch their heart. We had to use first to first. We went to them to their schools. I went to the churches and talked to the church leaders. We have a problem. I went to the barracks. You have cut all these trees. 20 years. You have set fire in our homeland. You have degraded our homeland. But we need your support. We have helped us for this war for 20 years and we have defeated Kwaing. But we have the second war which even affects you. We have got to get involved directly. So that is the green commander which is talking now, the green general we are talking. They gave me a name, that green general. I'm not a soldier, I'm a forester. The radio was talking about reconciliation and peace building. Reconciliation, peace building, peace, peace, peace. But the radio was not talking about the second war. Climate change and global warming. The weather is sift. They are preaching about rainfall. I went to the owners of those radios. We have got to talk about the second war. And they gave me the opportunity. I was given every week, Sunday, after program on radio, where I talked to the communities, where I asked my fellow youth to talk to the communities. And we developed a print called Free Talk. Free Talk, I mean it had illustration. So that passion we never went to school would follow the illustration and would see the problem at hand. There were many projects by FAO, developer and many others. And I told you earlier on that they were not getting the results that we wanted. I realized that they were making one mistake. You are carrying a training, a meeting, sensational workshop of a problem which is in Warsaw. You are doing it in Northern. Agences were carrying out training and workshop about a great landscape 200 meters away from the landscape. I realized that wasn't good. We have got to do our training in that landscape. We have to get outside the comfort zone. We don't need to sit in a big hotel to carry out the training on a great landscape. And so that when you are doing that, people could feel their landscape. They can see the problem at hand. I would ask them, look around you. Get up, look around you. Look around you. Look. What happened to our landscape? Look at the roofs. The wind has blown the roofs. You are hearing the radio. Our guys are being wrapped every day because when they returned back home they were going very long distance and they were being wrapped. Look at the trees. It is me and you, our brothers. These rebels were our brothers. The soldiers were our brothers. And who will plant them? Who will suffer if something is not done? When should we do it? The time is now. We have the solution here with us. And you know youth love competition. I have to develop competition between youth in schools. The competition induced innovation. There was inter school competition. Inter barracks competition. Barracks competing with another barracks. Inter school competition. The competition made conservation interesting. It was fun and it was rewarding. We had to grow more than 2 million trees. In 3 years, 2 million trees. 90% in dignas. 90% in dignas. We had to begin from the available resources. Local seed collection. I don't need to go and buy seed. We had some remaining seed stand. We began from there. We constructed more than 1,000 feathered energy saving stops in households and in schools. So that if you have the the the ulots and trees you have got also to use the stops which is efficient so that you use little feeload. Barracks are now becoming green. People are now conscious because of our talks, communication, radio. People are conscious. How much did we use in 3 years to grow 3 million trees? I mean more than 2 million trees. How much did we use? Less than 250,000 US dollars. And the trees are alive. But of course this is not enough. We can do more. As youth we have the energy. Even the longest journey begins with the first step. I did this when I spent 20 years in war. There are youth out there who can do more. They can do more. I believe that the only way to do great work is to love the job you do. And youth love their work. Having said this do you still have doubt in youth? This is a question for you. We go ahead over here. This is what I always tell my people when I'm training. People who spend that 20 years in war I ask them, we go ahead over here. If you have to go ahead, then you have got to do something. The youth are there. I mean they are willing. They are not given the opportunity. I was given the opportunity and I had to grow 2 million trees in 3 years. Why can't you give us a chance? Thank you so much.
