Our name, “Mekonda na Mahamba”, means the kinship and reciprocal relationships with the land, air, water, and all beings, both in the local community and globally. The meaning also incorporates the concepts of balance of life, such as that of feminine and masculine energy, and is similar to the philosophy of the yin and the yang. 

 

Learn more about us and take action to support our community. The “Mekonda na Mahamba Earth-Keepers Community”, is a non-profit program, established by Godi Godar in his ancestral land in the Bateke tribal community (near the Tshumbiri village) in the Democratic Republic of Congo. We currently have a team of Earth-Keepers serving on many Initiatives of our work

 

As “Earth-Keepers”, we endeavor to protect nature rights and work in harmonious, reciprocal relationship with nature to create and foster healthy ecosystems where all beings can thrive now and in future generations. We work to tend the earth as “keepers”, not “takers” as many do with little to no regard of the protection of biodiversity and the community.
