Inside: ENGLISH VERSION 2 We, members of Mitheru Cluster, are glad to share with other TIST farmers worldwide, the achievements we have made since joining TIST. Our Cluster currently has 48 Small Groups. Last month, 20 Small Groups received their tree incentive payments and 21 more are eligible to be paid. We achieved this because the groups have planted at least 500 trees and had these trees successfully quantified. Besides tree payments, we have benefited a lot from training and from taking action based on that training. We have been taught about Conservation Farming/ Kilimo hai, and many members have practiced it and experienced higher yields. In our cluster we have trained on tree nursery establishment and management. Groups have started nurseries, and many groups earn more income from surplus seedlings after planting in our own shambas. Mitheru Cluster: Proud of our achievements in TIST, and working together to achieve more. By David Mawira Members of Mitheru Cluster during their monthly meeting on 13th August, 2012. We are now in a process of organizing ourselves to get more TIST energy saving jikos. We want to save our trees and cook in a clean environment free of smoke.
We are proud of our accomplishments, and want to keep working together to achieve more. We all see the effects of deforestation, the removal of the woody vegetation cover and trees. In TIST, we work to stop deforestation and reverse some of its worst effects. Causes of deforestation
• Deforestation occurs when trees are cleared for uses such as firewood, for brick making, fish smoking, and construction, or to open land for cultivation.
• A lot of deforestation results from lack of awareness of the full value of trees.
• In some cases, the value of trees may be known but poverty and perceived lack of alternatives forces people to clear the trees. Problems caused
• Lack of tree cover and tree roots exposes soil and causes erosion
• Lack of forest resources we all need: removing trees destroys habitats, reduces biodiversity, removes food and medicinal resources and increases competition for construction materials. People have to walk further for firewood, and prices for forest products being bought prices become high.
• Lack of other environmental benefits of trees: Stop Deforestation, Plant Trees. By Joseph Gituma Trees act as a windbreak retain moisture, add oxygen to the air, and add nutrients to soil. Hence without trees the local climate will become drier with increased risk of flooding, wind erosion, decreasing soil fertility and diminished air quality. Solution to prevent deforestation 1. As TIST farmers we should have tree nurseries and produce seedlings to plant in our Small Group members’ land and sell seedlings to community members. We should encourage others to plant trees as well, and to join TIST! 2.
Use TIST energy saving cooking stoves, which use less firewood and charcoal, and encourage other community members to do the same. 3. Use alternative sources of energy and fuel where possible (e.g. heating from the sun, sawdust, coffee husks, grass, weeds, crop wastes, animal waste). 4. Carry out tree planting activities in our communities, especially with schools, churches, and near rivers. This really increases TIST’s impact! 5. Practice and encourage agroforestry and use of wood lots TIST – Let’s make our world green! ENGLISH VERSION 3 T IST Small Groups are happy for a success in the riparian pilot program initiated by TIST to help conserve and protect our waterways. There are 28 rivers in TIST areas that have been selected for this pilot program initiative and where TIST members are working to plant indigenous trees, removing eucalyptus. Farmers are choosing to stop cultivating near the river’s edge to stop erosion and pollution of the river. Today, we are glad to report that some members who are involved in planting indigenous trees in their riparian areas and following best practices for riparian areas have received additional money for their hard work and commitment.
We are proud of their accomplishments and celebrate their work to conserve the rivers that we all depend on. Five of the Small Groups that received an additional incentive for their work in Riparian Buffer conservation and restoration are in Kianjagi cluster. These are: 1) Karujani S.H.G # 2007KE1012 2) Kajoroge Group # 2008KE332 3) Gakeu T.P S.H.G # 2008KE1210 4) Wega # 2006KE1097 5) Mutindwa T # 2007KE625 We spoke with them to learn from their experience and example. What are the benefits of indigenous trees in riparian areas (along the riverbanks)? (a) Indigenous trees reduce soil erosion and flooding. (b) Indigenous trees help to clean water in rivers, streams and wells. (c) Roots of indigenous trees catch and retain soil. (d) Indigenous trees help clean air. (e) Indigenous trees produce shade for preventing water evaporation. (f) Indigenous trees provide habitat and food for birds, animals, and insects. Preserving this biodiversity in this way can benefit our farms since, for example, some animals are important for pollinating crops and controlling pests. Protecting Our Rivers – Planting more Indigenous and water friendly trees. By Jeniffer Kithure Why is it important to conserve river buffers? (a) Plants and trees in a buffer along rivers keep the environment clean and secure as the soil fertility remains intact all year round. (b) Plants and trees in a buffer along rivers reduce waterborne diseases. (c) Increasing fish in rivers due to clean water without pollution. What are your successes? What advice do you have for your neighbors along the riverbanks? a) We have qualified to be riparian members. b) We have received an extra Payment for Environmental Services (PES) for our work. c) We have eliminated eucalyptus in the riparian areas. d) We have improved the quality and quantity of water in rivers and streams. e) We advise our neighbors to be kind to those others who are in lower parts of the river, and to protect the river so these others can also get clean water. Their own grove will also remain secure from soil erosion when they plant trees and follow these best practices. Small Groups members from Kianjagi Cluster receiving payment vouchers for indigenous trees. ENGLISH VERSION 4 W hen Tandare cluster was formed in 2008, many members didn’t understand how TIST works very well, and many were not very motivated. However, after consistent trainings, members became more and more interested in TIST.
Training on Conservation Farming, stoves, and nursery created excitement and really motivated farmers. Today, in Tandare, we have 36 Small Groups. Many groups qualify for payments. We are happy to report that Tandare Cluster has been consistently practicing rotational leadership and that this best practice is working well. Each time a new leader is elected, new ideas are brought forth. For instance, our current Cluster leaders have helped the Cluster develop and implement a Cluster nursery with a goal of raising 500,000 seedlings by December 2013. Tandare cluster has 36 active Small Groups, and 6 Small Groups have nurseries The new cluster reps elected this year in May came with the idea of developing a cluster nursery in a public land. We worked to make this idea a reality, and meet every week on Tuesday to work on it. Today, Tandare’s cluster nursery has about 40,000 seedlings. We will work to have 500,000 seedlings and to have at least 200,000 trees quantified in the cluster by the end of December 2013. Tandare Cluster: We grow strength by strength each season. By David Thuku Members of Tandare Cluster tendering their Cluster nursery at Warero dam site on 7 August, 2012 We are inspired by the ideas of the members we choose to represent us as rotational leaders and proud of what we are accomplishing by working together. What are some great ideas from your cluster that you can share? Members of Tandare Cluster during establishment of their Cluster nursery at Warero dam site on April ,2012 A new Cluster is being born – Mporoko Cluster in Igembe district. Many farmers have been requesting TIST to expand in their areas, and when the farmers organize and start taking action,TIST can work with them to help them achieve membership. TIST has held several training meetings in the area. Through the application process, farmers have been taught the following: 1. TIST Basic information and History 2. TIST Small Group Eligibility Requirements Mporoko – A New Cluster joining TIST. By Joseph Gituma 3. TIST Values 4. Conservation Farming We, members of Mporoko Cluster are excited to join TIST. We are ready to be part of the community that believes in Honesty, Transparency, Accuracy, Mutual Accountability, Servant hood, Volunteerism and being role models. We are ready to use our hands and heads, create big results with low costs. With TIST, We Grow! ENGLISH VERSION 5 Working together in TIST, we have accomplished great things. Today, there are more than 6.4 million trees growing because of our work. We achieved and celebrated World’s First Validation and Verification under the Verified Carbon Market and Climate and Community Standards, qualifying many TIST farmers to take part in the global carbon market.
When we work together and follow TIST Values, we have great success. However, the most recent Validation and Verification audit showed that we have not been carefully following these values that are so important for success. We saw inaccurate tree counts and other problems that can really hurt TIST. We saw that some groups have been paid for trees they have not planted. When we have problems like this, it hurts all TIST farmers since if data is not accurate, we cannot take part in the carbon market. Buyers want to buy from people they trust and who they know are honest. We held a TIST Leaders’ seminar, with representatives from clusters through all of TIST, to discuss the results of the Validation and Verification and decide how we can work to correct problems that were found and to move forward with strength. The seminar had several important outcomes: We had to suspend tree payments until we can be sure that data from Quantifications are correct and accurate. We are mutually accountable, and Small Groups are playing a very important role in making sure that the data we have are correct. Clusters represented at the seminar are trying a new best practice: cluster representatives and Small Group are all reviewing the trees counted in each grove and sending information about whether the data are correct or need to be corrected. They plan to complete this work by the end of September. When we learn the results from these pilot clusters, we can create a plan to move forward, and perhaps expand this approach in other clusters. TIST Quantifiers also took responsibility for these data and are working to correct data that they know are not true to TIST Values. TIST farmers at the seminar said they We are Accurate, Honest, and Mutually Accountable: Small Groups play key role in correcting TIST data. understood better than before the role each person has in making TIST a success. They committed themselves to do their best to help make sure that results are accurate.
They committed themselves to help TIST achieve big results that everyone can see so that we will have more trees growing, accurately quantified, and more groups qualified for the carbon market. TIST members left the seminar remotivated and recommitted to TIST. We hope that each TIST member also accepts this challenge and responsibility. Together, we can achieve amazing things. What can I do to help TIST succeed? - Attend and actively take part in TIST Small Group and Cluster meetings. - Know the data on groves Quantified in your Small Group and let your cluster leaders know if the counts or other information know if it is not accurate. - Plant more trees, and keep the trees you planted growing and healthy. - Make sure someone from your Cluster is working with the Quantifier during Quantifications. - Tell your neighbors and friends about TIST, and encourage people who live by TIST values to join our work. - Commit to following the TIST Values yourself, in your Small Group and in your cluster. TIST Values; 1. We Are Honest 2. We Are Accurate 3. We Are Transparent 4. We Are Role Models 5. We Are Servants To Each Other 6. We Are Volunteers 7. We Are Mutually Accountable To Each Other 8. We Are Low Cost, High Results ENGLISH VERSION 6 I n TIST, we find strength in taking action together and sharing our successes with others in our Small Groups, in our clusters, and beyond. Monthly cluster reports on cluster meetings and accounting are an important part of this success. Each cluster is responsible for submitting a cluster meeting and cluster accounting report every month. How to report Cluster Budget and Cluster Meetings using SMS Transparency and mutual accountability are key values of TIST. Each TIST cluster must report how it spends its 900/= cluster budget to achieve big results. TIST has been using a new, easier way for Clusters to report their monthly budget use their Cluster Meeting Records using SMS.This approach allows a TIST member to send an SMS from their phone to a central phone number. SMS messages are collected and analyzed by TIST staff. If a cluster has access to a working Palm, they should use the Cluster Meeting and Accounting Forms on the Palms. However, with this new method, every cluster should report accurately and honestly every month. This approach simplifies reporting for Cluster Representatives and helps TIST staff support Cluster activities. Reminder: for success, every month your cluster should: 1) Attend your cluster meeting and remind other groups to attend. 2) Review together the results your cluster has achieved:
new trees planted, groups quantified, and how budget was spent together as a cluster. Make this part of the cluster meeting and of your Small Group meetings! 3) Send reports by Palm or SMS for Cluster Meeting and Cluster Accounting. 4) Organize quantification with Quantifiers. Make sure someone from your cluster assists in each quantification! 5) Invite your friends and neighbors to join TIST at a cluster meeting. Share this Mazingira Bora and help them with the application process. 6) Make bigger results! Plant trees, build or buy an energy saving stove, practice CF. Remember: a strong cluster should have at least 200,000 Quantified trees, 30-50 active Small Groups who meet each month, elected servant leaders, and be carrying out and reporting on good training and quantification. Together, we can achieve anything! Cluster reporting: Share your successes to make your cluster and TIST strong. A new market for croton nuts has emerged. A company in Naro Moru is buying croton seeds to manufacture biodiesel which can been used to run motor vehicles and other machines. Eco Fuels Kenya, Ltd is buying crotons seeds at Ksh 6.50 per Kg. Farmers are collecting these seeds from their own private farms or from the nearby forests. Many TIST farmers find that Croton megalocarpus, an indigenous tree, makes a good Opportunity to sell Croton Nuts. windbreak on their farm. This new market for Croton seeds is one more benefit to consider when you are choosing which trees to grow. Eco Fuels arranges for transport once the collection has been made.

KISWAHILI VERSION 2 Wanacluster wa Mitheru katika mkutano wao wa kila mwezi mnamo Agosti kumi na tatu, 2012. S isi, wanacluster ya Mitheru, tunafuraha kugawana na wakulima wengine wa TIST katika dunia nzima, kuhusu tuliyofanikiwa nayo tangu kuungana na TIST. Cluster yetu ilivyo sasa ina vikundi vidogo arobaini na nane. Mwezi uliopita vikundi vidogo ishirini vilifikiwa na malipo ya motisha ya miti yao na vikundi vingine ishirini na moja vimefuzu kulipwa. Tulifikia haya kwa sababu vikundi hivyo vimepanda zaidi ya miti mia tano na walihesabiwa miti hii kwa ukamilifu. Pamoja na malipo ya miti, tumefaidika kutokana na mafunzo mengi na kutokana na kujihusisha katika kutenda kulingana na mafunz hayo. Tumefunzwa kuhusu Kilimo hai, na wanaTIST wengi wamejishughulisha kutumia njia hii na wamepata mavuno bora zaidi. Katika cluster yetu tumefunzwa kuhusu kuanzisha na kusimamia vitalu vya miti. Vikundi vimeanzisha vitalu, na vikundi vingi vimepata pesa zaidi kutokana na miti inayobaki baada ya kupanda katika mashamba yao. Sasa tupo katika utaratibu wa kujipanga kupata meko ya TIST zaidi ya kuokoa nishati. Tunataka kuiokoa miti yetu na kupikia katika mazingira safi kutokana na moshi. Twajivunia tuliyokamilisha, na tunataka kuzidi kufanya kazi pamoja ili kuyafikia engine.
S isi sote tumeona madhara ya ukataji miti, kutolewa kwa mimea yenye mbao na miti. Katika TIST, sisi hufanya kazi kuachisha ukataji miti na kugeuza mengine ya madhara yake mabaya zaidi. Sababu za ukataji miti
• Ukataji miti hufanyika wakati miti inakatwa ili kutumika kama kuni, kutengeneza matofali, kukausha samaki, na kujenga, ama kufungua shamba ili liweze kulimwa.
• Ukataji miti mwingi hutokana na kutokuwepo kwa ujuzi kuhusu thamani kamili ya miti.
• Wakati mwingine, thamani ya miti yaweza kuwa inajulikana lakini umaskini na kutambulika kusio sahihi kuhusu ukosefu wa lingine la kufanya hulazimisha watu kukata miti. Shida zinazojitokeza
• Ukosefu wa miti ya kufunika ardhi na mizizi huacha udongo hatarini na huruhusu mmomonyoko wa udongo.
• Ukosefu wa rasili mali ya msitu tunayohitaji: kukata miti huharibu mahali pa wanyama pa kuishi, hupunguza viumbe hai/ bioanuwai, hutoa rasili mali ya chakula na dawa na huongeza ushindani ili kupata vifaa vyz ujenzi. Watu wanahitajika kutembea mbali zaidi ili kupata kuni, na bei za bidhaa zinazotoka misituni zinapanda juu sana.
• Ukosefu wa faida nyinginezo za miti za kimazingira: miti hupunguza upepo, uhifadhi unyevu, huongeza hewa safi hewani, na huongeza virutubisho udongoni. Kwa hivyo bila miti hali ya anga ya mahali hapo itakuwa kavu zaidi na kuongeza hatari ya mafuriko, mmonyoko wa udongo unaosababishwa na upepo, kupunguzwa kwa rutuba ya udongo na kupunguzika kwa usafi wa hewa. Suluhisho la kuzuia ukataji wa miti 1. Kama wakulima wa TIST twapaswa kuwa na vitalu vya miti na kukuza miti ya kupanda katika mashamba ya kila mwanakikundi na kuuza miti kwa wanajamii.
Twafaa kutia moyo wengine kupanda miti pia, na kujiunga na TIST! 2. Tumia meko ya TIST ya kuokoa nishati, ambayo hutumia kuni na makaa chache, na tutie moyo wanajamii wengine kufanya vivyo hivyo. 3. Tumia nishati badala inapowezekana (kwa mfano, joto la jua, machujo ya mbao, maganda ya kahawa, nyasi, magugu, mabaki ya mimea, taka za wanyama). 4. Kujihusisha na shughuli za upandaji miti za jamii, san asana katika mashule, makanisa na karibu na mito. Hili kweli litaongeza matokeo ya TIST! 5. Utendaji na kuhimiza kilimo mseto na matumizi ya mashamba madogo ya miti. TIST –Tufanyeni dunia yetu iwe kijani kibichi! Cluster ya Mitheru: Twajivunia mafanikio yetu katika TIST na twafanya kazi pamoja kufikia mengineyo. Umeletewa na David Mawira Wacha Ukataji miti, Panda miti. Umeletewa na Joseph Gituma KISWAHILI VERSION 3 Wanavikundi kutoka Cluster ya Kianjagi wakipewa vocha za malipo ya miti ya kiasili. V ikundi vidogo vya TIST vinafuraha kwa sababu ya kufanikiwa katika mpango wa kulinda mito ambao ulianzishwa na TIST kusaidia kuhifadhi na kulinda mito yetu. Kuna mito ishirini na nane katika maeneo ya TIST ambayo yamechaguliwa kuwa ya kwanza katika mpango huu and ambapo wanaTIST wanafanya kazi kupanda miti ya kiasili, na kumaliza Mikaratusi. Wakulima wanachagua kuacha kulima karibu na mito ili kuachisha mmonyoko wa udongo na uchafuzi wa mto.
Leo, tunafuraha kuripoti kuwa wanaTIST wengine wamejiunga na kupanda miti ya kiasili katika maeneo yao yaliyo karibu na mito na wanafuatilia mienendo iliyo mizuri kabisa katika maeneo kama haya wamepewa pesa za nyongeza kwa sababu ya kazi na kujitolea kwao. Tunajivunia waliyofanya na tunasherehekea kazi yao ya kuhifadhi mito ambayo sote tunahitaji ili kuishi. Vikundi vidogo vitano, ambavyo vilipata nyongeza ya motisha kwa sababu ya kazi yao katika kuhifadhi maeneo yanayozunguka mito na kuyakomboa, vipo katika cluster ya Kianjagi. Hivi ni: 1) Karujani S.H.G # 2007KE1012 2) Kajoroge Group # 2008KE332 3) Gakeu T.P S.H.G # 2008KE1210 4) Wega # 2006KE1097 5) Mutindwa T # 2007KE625 Tuliongea nao ili kusoma kutokana na uzoefu na mfano wao. Nini faida ya miti ya kiasili katika maeneo yaliokaribu na mito(kando ya mito)? (a) Miti ya kiasili hupunguza mmomonyoko wa udongo na mafuriko. (b) Miti ya kisili husaidia kusafisha maji katika mito, vijito na visima. (c) Mizizi ya miti ya kiasili hushika na kudumisha udongo (d) Miti ya kiasili husaidia kusafisha hewa. (e) Miti ya kiasili hutoa kivuli ambacho huzuia uvukizi wa maji. (f) Miti ya kiasili huwapa ndege, wanyama na wadudu makazi. Kuhifadhi hawa viumbe hai kwa njia hii kwaweza kufaidi mashamba yetu kwani, kwa mfano, wanyama wengine ni muhimu katika uchavushaji wa mimea na kudhibiti wadudu. Ni kwa nini ni muhimu kuhifadhi vizuizi vya mito? (a) Mimea na miti ktika kizuizi kando ya mito huweka mazingira yakawa masafi na salama kwani rutuba ya udongo hubaki ilivyo mwaka wote. (b) Mimea na miti kama kizuizi kando ya mito hupunguza magonjwa yanayotokana na maji machafu. (c) Kuongezeka kwa samaki katika mito kwa sababu ya maji safi yasiyochafuka.
Ni yapi mafanikio yenu? Ni ushauri upi mnao kwa majirani wenu walio kando ya mito? a) Tumefuzu kuwa memba wa mpango huu. b) Tumepata pesa zaidi kwa sababu ya huduma za kimazingira (PES) kwa sababu ya kazi yetu. c) Tumemaliza Mikaratusi katika maeneo yaliyo karibu na mito. d) Tumeboresha usafi na wingi wa maji katika mito na vijito. e) Tunashauri majirani wetu kuwa wema kwa walio sehemu za chini za mto, na kulinda mto ili wengine pia wapate maji safi. Mashamba yao ya miti pia yatabaki salama kutokana na mmomonyoko wa udongo watakapopanda miti na kufuatilia mienendo hii bora zaidi. Kuilinda mito yetu- kupanda miti ya kiasili na isiyo haribifu kwa maji. Umeletewa na Jeniffer Kithure KISWAHILI VERSION 4 Wanacluster ya Tandare wanahudumia kitalu chao pale karibu na bwawa la Warero mnamo tarehe saba,Agosti, 2012 W anacluster ya Tandare walipokuwa wakianzisha kitalu chao cha cluster pale bwawa la W arero mnamo Aprili, 2012 Wakati cluster ya Tandare iliundwa mwaka wa elfu mbilia na nane, wanacluster wengi hawakuelewa jinsi TIST inavyofanya kazi vizuri, na wengi hawakuwa na motisha. Hata hivyo, baada ya mafunzo mengi, wanacluster wengine na wengine wakawa na shauku katika TIST. Mafunzo kuhusu kilimo hai, meko, na vitalu yalianzisha hamu na kuwachochea wakulima. Leo, katika Tandare, tuna vikundi vidogo thelathini na sita. Vikundi vingi vimefuzu kuweza kulipwa. Tuna furaha kuripotu kuwa cluster ya Tandare imekuwa kwa mfululizo ikizungusha uongozi na zoezi ili linafanya kazi vizuri. Kila wakati kiongozi mpya anapochaguliwa, mawazo mapya yanaletwa.
Kwa mfano, viongozi wetu wa cluster kwa sasa wamesaidia cluster kukua na kuanzisha kitalu cha cluster na lengo la kuwa na miti laki tano ifikapo decemba mwaka wa 2013. Cluster ya Tandare ina vikundi vidogo thelathini na site, na vikundi sita vina vitalu. Wawakilishi wa cluster wapya waliochaguliwa mwaka huu mwezi wa tano waliingia na wazo la kukuza kitalu cha cluster katika ardhi ya umma. Tulifanya kazi kufanya wazo ili halisi, na kukutana kila wiki siku na jumanne kulifanyia kazi. Leo, kitalu cha cluster ya Tandare kina miti elfu arobaini. Tutafanya kazi kuwa na miti laki tano na kuwa na miti zaidi ya laki mbili iliyohesabiwa katika cluster yetu kabla ya Decemba mwaka wa 2013. Tunaongozwa na mawazo ya wanacluster tunaochagua kutuongoza kama viongozi wa kuzunguka na tunajivunia yale ambayo tumeweza kufikia kwa kufanya kazi pamoja. Ni yapi mawazo makuu kutoka cluster yako ambayo waweza kugawana nasi? C luster mpya inazaliwa- Cluster ya Mporoko katika mkoa wa Igembe. Wakulima wengi wamekuwa wakiuliza TIST kuenea hadi maeneo yao, na wakati wakulima wanajipanga na kuchukua hatua, TIST yaweza kuwasaidia kujiandikisha. TIST imefanya mikutano kadhaa ya mafunzo katika eneo hili. Kupitia mchakato wa kuomba kuingia katika TIST, wakulima wamefunzwa yafuatayo: 1. Taarifa ya msingi na Historia ya TIST 2. Mahitaji ya kustahiki kuwa katika kikundi kidogo cha TIST 3. Maadili ya TIST 4. Kilimo hai Sisi wanacluster ya Mporoko tunahamu ya kuingia katika TIST.
Tuko tayari kuwa sehemu ya jamii inayoamini ukweli, uwazi, usahihi, uwajibikaji kati yetu, utumishi, kujitolea na kuwa mfano wa kuigwa. Tuko tayari kutumia mikono na vichwa vyetu, kupata matokeo makubwa tukitumia gharama kidogo. Na TIST, sisi tutakua! Cluster ya Tandare: Tunakua kinguvu kila msimu. Umeletewa na David Thuku Mporoko –Cluster mpya yajiunga na TIST. Umeletewa na Joseph Gituma KISWAHILI VERSION 5 K upitia kufanya kazi pamoja katika TIST, tumeyafanya mambo makubwa sana. Leo, kuna zaidi ya miti milioni sita nukta nne inayokua kwa sababu ya kazi yetu. Tumefanikiwa na kusherehekea uthibitisho na ukaguzi wa kwanza dunia mzima chini ya viwango vya Verified Carbon Market and Climate and Community, hivyo basi wakulima wengi kufuzu kuhusika katika soko la dunia la kaboni. Tunapofanya kazi pamoja na kuzingatia maadili ya TIST, tunapata mafanikio makubwa. Hata hivyo, ukaguzi wa mwisho ili kuthibitishwa ulionyesha kuwa hatujayafuata maadili haya yaliyo muhimu katika kufanikiwa kwetu inavyofaa. Tuliona uhesabu wa miti usio sahihi na shida nyinginezo ambazo zaweza kuumiza TIST pakubwa. Tuliona kuwa vikundi vingine vimelipiwa miti ambayo hawajapanda. Tunapokuwa na shida kama hizi inaumiza wakulima wa TIST kwani kama data sio sahihi, hatuwezi kuhusika katika soko la kaboni. Wanunuzi wanataka kununua kutoka kwa watu wanaoamini na ambao wanajua ni waaminifu. Tulifanya semina ya viongozi wa TIST, pamoja na wawakilishi kutoka cluster zote za TIST, ili kujadiliana matokeo ya ukaguzi na uthibitisho na kuamua jinsi ambavyo tunaweza kufanya kazi ili kusahihisha shida tulizopata na kusonga mbele tukiwa na nguvu.
Semina hiyo ilikuwa na matokeo mengi muhimu: Ilibidi tuachishe malipo ya miti hadi tutakapokuwa na uhakika kuwa data kutokana na uhesabu wa miti ni ya kweli na sahihi. Tunawajibika kati yetu wenyewe, na vikundi vidogo vina jukumu muhimu katika kuhakikisha kuwa data tuliyonayo ni ya kweli. Cluster zilizowakiliswha katika semina zinajaribu mwenendo mpya ulio bora zaidi: wawakilishi wa cluster na vikundi vidogo wanapitia upya miti iliyohesabiwa katika kila shamba na kutuma ujumbe wa kama data ni ya kweli au yahitaji kusahihishwa. Wanapanga kukamilisha kazi hii kabla ya mwisho wa mwezi wa tisa. Tutakapojua matokeo kutokana na cluster hizi za kwanza, tutaweza kufanya mpango wa kusonga mbele, na labda tutaipanua mbinu hii katika cluster zingine. Wahesabu miti wa TIST pia walichukua wajibu kwa sababu ya data hii na wanafanya kazi ili kusahihisha data ambayo Sisi ni sahihi, Waaminifu, na Wawajibika kati yetu wenyewe: Vikundi vidogo hufanya jukumu muhimu katika kurekebisha data ya TIST. wanajua si ya ukweli kulingana na maadili ya TIST Wakulima wa TIST katika semina hiyo walisema kuwa walielewa zaidi ya kabla ya semina jukumu la kila mtu katika kufanikisha TIST. Walijitolea kufanya wanavyoweza kusaidia kuhakikisha kuwa matokeo ni sahihi.
Walijitolea kusaidia TIST kufikia matokeo makubwa ambayo kila mtu ataona ili tuwe na miti mingine ikikua, miti iliyohesabiwa sahihi, na vikundi vingine vinavyofuzu kuingia katikma soko la kaboni. WanaTIST walimaliza semina wakiwa wenye motisha mpya na kujitolea kupya katika TIST. Tunatumaini kuwa kila mwanaTIST atachukua changamoto na wajibu huu. Pamoja, twaweza kufikia mambo ya kuajabisha. Naweza kufanya nini ili kusaidia TIST kufanikiwa? - Hudhuria na ujihusishe na mikutano ya vikundi vidogo na cluster za TIST - Jua data katika mashamba yaliyohesabiwa miti katika kikundi chako na ujuze viongozi wa cluster yako kama hesabu ama mambo mengineyo si sahihi. - Panda miti mingine, na uiache miti yako kukua na kuwa yenye afya. - Hakikisha kuwa kuna mtu kutoka kwa cluster yako anayefanya kazi na mhesabu miti wakati wa kuhesabiwa. - Ambia majirani na marafiki wako kuhusu TIST na uwatie moyo watu wanafuatilia maadili ya TIST kujiunga na kazi yetu. - Jitolee kufuatilia maadili ya TIST wewe mwenyewe katika kikundi chako na katika cluster yako. Maadili ya TIST; 1. Sisi ni Waaminifu 2. Sisi huwa sahihi 3. Sisi ni wenye Uwazi 4. Sisi ni mfano wa kuigwa 5. Sisi ni watumishi kwa kila mmoja wetu 6. Sisi ni wenye kujitolea 7. Sisi ni wenye kuwajibika kati yetu wenyewe 8. Sisi ni wa gharama nafuu, matokeo makubwa KISWAHILI VERSION 6 K atika TIST,
tunapata nguvu katika kuchukua hatua pamoja na kugawana mafanikio yetu na wengine katika vikundi vyetu vidogo, katika cluster zetu na kwingineko. Ripoti za mikutano ya mwezi ya cluster za matumizi ya pesa za cluster ni sehemu muhimu katika kufanikiwa huku. Kila cluster inawajibika kuwasilisha ripoti ya mkutano wa cluster nay a matumizi ya pesa za cluster kila mwezi. Jinsi ya kuripoti bajeti na mikutano ya cluster kwa kutumia ujumbe mfupi wa simu TIST imekuwa ikitumia njia mpya, rahisi ya kutumiwa na cluster kuripoti bajeti ya kila mwezi na kutumia rekondi za mikutano ya cluster kwa njia ya ujumbe mfupi. Uwazi na uwajibikaji kati yetu ni maadili makuu ya TIST. Kila cluster ya TIST inalazimika kuripoti kuhusu inavyotumia bajeti ya mia tisa kupata matokeo makubwa. Mbinu hii inaitikia mwanaTIST kutuma ujumbe mfupi kutoka simu yake hadi nambari ya simu kuu. Ujumbe huu unachukuliwa na kuchambuliwa na viongozi wa TIST. Kama cluster ina kifaa cha Palm kinachofanya kazi, yafaa kutumia fomu za mikutano ya cluster na za uwajibikaji katika Palm hizo. Hata hivyo, katika njia hii mpya, kila cluster inapaswa kuripoti sahihi na kwa ukweli kila mwezi. Njia hii inarahisisha kuripoti kwa wawakilishi wa cluster na inasaidia viongozi wa TIST kusaidia katika shughuli za cluster. Kumbusho: Ili kufanikiwa, kila mwezi cluster yako yafaa: 1) Kuhudhuria mkutano wako wa cluster na kukumbusha vikundi vingine kuhudhuria. . 2) Kupitia pamoja matokeo ambayo cluster yako imefikia: miti mipya mliyopanda, vikundi vilivyohesabiwa miti, na jinsi bajeti yako ilivyotumika na cluster. Fanya jambo ili liwe sehemu ya mkutano wa cluster na wa kikundi kidogo! 3) Tuma ripoti za mikutano na uwajibikaji wa pesa za cluster kwa kutumia Palm au ujumbe mfupi. 4) Pangia uhesabu miti na wahesabu miti. Hakikisha mtu kutoka cluster yako anasaidia katika kila uhesabu! 5) Karibisha marafiki na majirani wako kujiunga na TIST katika mkutano ya cluster. Gawana nao gazeti ili la Mazingira Bora na huwasaidie katika mchakato wa kuomba kujiunga na TIST 6) Fikia ata matokeo makubwa zaidi! Panda miti, jenga au ununue jiko la kuokoa nishati, jaribu kilimo hai.
Kumbuka: cluster yenye nguvu yafaa kuwa na miti zaidi ya laki mbili iliyohesabiwa, vikundi vidogo thelathini kufikia hamsini vilivyo hai na ambavyo hukutana kila mwezi, viongozi wa kujitolea waliochaguliwa na iwe inafanya na kuripoti kuhusu mafunzo mazuri na uhesabu miti. Pamoja twaweza kufanya lolote! Ripoti za cluster: Gawana mafanikio yenu ili kuongeza cluster yako na TIST nguvu. S oko jipya la Croton limejitokeza. Kampuni moja iliyo Naro Moru inanunua mbegu za Croton ili kutengeneza diseli ya kutokana na mimea ambayo yaweza kutumiwa kuendesha magari na ata mashine nyinginezo. Kampuni inayoitwa Eco Fuels Ltd inanunua mbegu za croton kwa bei ya shilingi sita na sumni kila Kilo. Wakulima wanaokota mbegu hizi kutoka kwa mashamba yao au misitu inayokaribia. Wakulima wengi wa TIST wanajua kuwa mti Fursa ya kuuza mbegu za Croton. huu wa Croton megalocarpus, Mti wa kiasili, huwa njia nzuri ya kupunguza upepo katika mashamba yao. Soko ili jipya la mbegu za Croton ni faida moja ya kufikiria wakati unapochagua miti ya kukuza. Eco Fuels hupangia usafiri baada ya kuchukua mbegu hizi.
