HEDON Subscribers of the Month

Every month, HEDON features in its newsletter the work of one of its Subscribers. With over 600 of us out there, it can sometimes be difficult to learn about and keep track of all the amazing work being done by the individual members of the community. Hopefully, these features bring us all a little bit closer, and foster the connections and communication that are so vital to our network. Enjoy!

August: TIE-ENERGIA, in Africa

This month, HEDON is taking an 'organizational' approach to its Featured Subscriber. As it often appears in the 'News and Announcements' pages and, indeed, enjoys the involvement of many HEDON subscribers, we thought it good to tell you why it is TIE-ENERGIA is not only making headlines as a result of its success in integrating gender into energy policy and practice, but attracting so many of you.

July: Dr. Karabi Dutta, in India

In this month's HEDON Subscriber Profile, we look at the efforts of Dr. Karabi Dutta, who, despite being a biotechnologist by trade, takes a multi-disciplinary (including architecture and economics, just to name a few) approach to improving indoor air quality in India. Her methods have paid off, with real benefits being felt by those households she has worked with.

June: Robert Flanagan, S.A.F.F.E., in China

In HEDON's first feature article on the amazing work of our subscribers, we look at the dedicated efforts of Robert Flanagan, who has committed himself to transforming international scientific research on soil, agriculture, and renewable energy into a workable system, first, for farmers in China, and then, the world. This arrangement, itself utilizing ancient soil practices in Brazil, is based on the science of converting biomass into bio-fuels and nutrient-rich high-carbon fertilizer, allowing for the soil on which bio-energy crops are grown to not only be restored, but actually improved given the unique make-up of the resultant fertilizer. Better yet, the process is both carbon negative and applicable the world over.
