Just a reminder > Why I live in a house made of mud | Laura Tarimo | TEDxMajengo

1 min read



Laura Tarimo runs community workshops on sustainable living out of her eco-friendly home in Tanzania. In this talk she shares her journey of learning about permaculture and building with earth materials, which led her to unexpected places and new realizations. Today she works on environmental education and youth initiatives, teaching people to value traditional African building practices as a way to live in harmony with nature and the environment. Laura Tarimo also known as Mama Trinity is a resident of Moivaro ward in Arusha. In 2012 she began a home building project, which evolved into a journey of learning about permaculture and sustainable living. She uses her home as a space for sharing knowledge about practices that enable the preservation of community values, and the natural environment. She continues to receive visitors from all ages and walks of life for this purpose. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
