Welcome to Ichiman Trees Project!

This project explores the use of blockchain in developing solutions that can unlock funding for climate and poverty action interventions. The project uses Namibia as a case study to demonstrate how non-fungible tokens (NFTs) can be used to unlock funding for climate and poverty action projects. The project's prototype is capable of unlocking funding for planting 10,000 fruit trees and providing clean water to 1,000 people. Each community member will receive 100 liters of clean water per day in exchange for being a caretaker for 10 trees. The fruit trees will provide the community with fresh fruits, which will address hunger, provide income-generating opportunities, and ultimately contribute to eradicating poverty. With this innovative project, we can unlock much needed funding for climate and poverty action interventions in sub-Saharan Africa.
