As environmental challenges grow, Potro is dedicated to driving change through collective action and community engagement. Our Program and Project segment focuses on empowering communities to embrace sustainable living through innovative farming practices and green learning spaces, with a user-centric approach.
SOBUJ-e: An Alternative Solution for Sustainable Farming
The SOBUJ-e module is an alternative, sustainable farming solution designed for environmentally vulnerable communities, women and children, marginalized groups, and urban dwellers. Utilizing mobile vertical farming modules, SOBUJ-e addresses immediate nutritional needs and aims to solve broader food security challenges.
By focusing on a user-centric approach, we ensure the communities can adapt to these farming methods while continuously upgrading the technology and designs for sustainability. This modular approach fosters food production and promotes a healthier, self-reliant future, particularly in challenging environments.
YOLO-NOOK: A Practical Green Learning Space for Youth and Children
YOLO-NOOK is Potro’s green learning space designed to immerse youth and children in a green lifestyle. It is a creative hub where young minds explore sustainability through hands-on activities. By engaging with SOBUJ-e modules, participants gain practical knowledge of sustainable food production.
The goal of YOLO-NOOK is not just education but creating an environment where children can experience green living firsthand. It connects them with nature, fosters creativity, and nurtures their understanding of ecological systems, all while reinforcing the importance of sustainability.
SOBUJ-e and YOLO-NOOK: Growing and Learning Green Together
Our YOLO-NOOK learning space complements SOBUJ-e by providing youth with hands-on experience in sustainable living. Participants engage in activities teaching them how to use SOBUJ-e modules for urban farming and green practices. Together, these initiatives foster sustainable living and empower future generations to contribute to greener communities.
Creating a Greener Future
At Potro, we believe sustainable living is within reach for all communities. By integrating SOBUJ-e’s farming modules with YOLO-NOOK’s learning experiences, we inspire individuals to adopt green lifestyles while building resilient, eco-conscious communities. Together, we are addressing today’s nutritional needs and preparing for tomorrow’s food security challenges, paving the way for a more sustainable future.
