Please describe your proposed solution.
Context:
Soil erosion is a phenomenon that affects all countries in the world and even more the country sends development as the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has only accumulated the loss of more than 250,000 hectares of arable land following has phenomena like erosion.
The production of fast-growing trees with characteristics
which can be used to bed against soil erosion is not very popular in the region that is why we before launching experimental nurseries of acacias that we intend to use in this project
The solution:
Most businesses have planted a number of trees to help offset their carbon footprint, but what we're going to do is allow you to plant trees to combat soil erosion and then we'll allow owners NFTrees to "adopt a tree" and see how that tree grows. You will be able to purchase an NFTree that will correspond to a specific tree in our nursery and will have access to certain information about that tree, including pictures and/or videos, so that you can see its growth. You will have access to the tree's unique history The NFTree will also give you a voice in how the tree is managed (as part of our core principles). There may be options to make something like a tree paste (to protect the bark of the tree) for example.
Our solution will consist of several phases in approaching this question. Generally speaking, we want to associate each tree we produce in our nurseries with an NFTree.
In a first phase, we will go to the area of Masisi to the east of the city of Goma to meet the people living in areas at risk of erosion and start a conversation with them. We will focus on collecting information on the most used trees and the areas at high risk of erosion. Each of our actions and experiences will be captured through (videos, images, text and audio) which will serve as the starting point for each NFTree dynamic story.
The second phase of the project will involve returning to the areas we have visited before at the appropriate time of year for seedlings and conditioning them from our current nurseries.
During the third phase, we will implement a TREEdano minting policy on Cardano that will allow us to mint NFTree(s) for each tree in the nursery making sure to attach the appropriate documentation specific to each tree. All images, audio, text, video, or stories (according to the local context) will be captured. This process will be dynamic in the sense we will be able to link future stories and actions to whatever we initially create**.** We will conclude this phase by transplanting the tree and making sure they are given a unique DID and their geographical coordinates are captured.
Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.
The end goals of this project are at the heart of a serious problem facing most countries in the world. We hope that through this project and the community-based desubilizations we could raise awareness among the inhabitants of the need to preserve these trees.
What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?
We may run into the problem of the non-acceptance of the project by the local population but we have considered proceeding by the participatory method to reassure ourselves that we will achieve our objectives.
Climatic hazards, to allow the sustainability of the project and ensure that the species planted can evolve; a committee of experts and local leaders will be set up
