Maqhawe Nene is a Zone Facilitator in Loskop. He became a group member to gain more agricultural skills, so that he could produce his own food and make a business out of farming. As a Zone facilitator, he is responsible for motivating and encouraging other group members to put into practice all they have learned from ACAT. He says:
“Since I was made a Zone facilitator, I have worked hard to develop my own homestead to be a ‘lighthouse’ in the area. I have a vegetable garden, keep broiler chickens, and have set up a jojo tank to harvest water from my roof. I plant and sell seedlings and shrubs. I have also attended many of the ACAT courses at the centre as well as in the field which have helped me acquire many skills which I use for sustaining myself, as well as train other group members in my community.”
