ENGLISH VERSION 2 L ast Month, we reported the successful visit by New England College Students. We shared with you Clusters and Small Groups they visited. This month, we are happy to announce NEC students were impressed by TIST so much that, they decided to market and promote TIST within their college and beyond. The New England College Students have set a goal to offset the carbon footprint of the school’s undergraduate student population, a 6,800 tonne goal. The students have proposed to do this by developing an institutional carbon endowment through the planting of TIST trees. On April 22nd , Earth Day, they began a public launch of this campaign through a range of fundraising events.
These events include: 1) A raffle to win various prizes. 2) A prize to the student who voluntarily plants the most trees. 3) An event where the economics professor has agreed to let students tape him to a wall - the students are selling the tape by the foot for this event. 4) And the big event - the class has arranged to have all coffee removed from campus to highlight the impact of climate change. While the class is having coffee removed from the cafe and cafeteria, it has also arranged to brew and sell coffee at a central location on campus, where all proceeds go to planting trees. 100’s of cups of coffee are consumed at NEC everyday, so this will draw the attention of the entire campus. These events are designed to generate a great deal of public awareness and to build momentum for the cause with the students, administration, and the board of trustees. The expectation is that we can rapidly expand the offset goal from the undergrad student population to the entire College’s carbon footprint. Currently two students from the trip, Stephanie Goulet and Jodi Adams, are laying the groundwork to achieve this larger goal. In addition to our efforts focused at NEC we have also launched a public campaign which we hope will draw attention to our strategy and lead other schools to replicate this model of a carbon endowment. We will continue to update you as new relationships are built with other Colleges and Universities. New England College Begins Marketing TIST in United States of America and Beyond. ENGLISH VERSION 3 Preparing seedlings for transplanting (Hardening Off) Now that rains have come, seedlings need to be planted out. It is important this month to make sure that seedlings will be ready to be moved from the nursery and planted in the field. Seedlings first need to be prepared for the harsher conditions of the field. If seedlings have been properly looked after in a nursery, they may have received more water and shade than they will have once they have been planted. Gradually reduce the watering and expose the seedlings to full sunlight to make this transition successful. Characteristics of good seedlings As a general guide (remembering different species have different characteristics) good seedlings for planting out have the following characteristics: • The shoot should be twice the length of the roots or the pot. • The stem should be strong and woody. • The seedlings should have many thin roots in addition to the main roots. • Many seedlings will achieve these characteristics two months after germinating. Transplanting • Transport the seedlings in an upright position • Mark out a circle with a diameter of 30cm in the field • Remove the topsoil and place in a pile • Remove the next soil layer to a depth of 30cm and place in a separate pile • Put in a 5cm layer of grass (dry grass in rainy season, fresh grass in dry season), (called mulching).
Some groups add manure as well. • Remove the seedling from the polythene bag. Do not break the earth-balls around the roots. • Place the seedling in the hole • Replace the topsoil first, then the second soil layer. • Some groups do not fill the hole completely, but leave a gap of a few cm. This helps the rainwater enter the hole and infiltrate the soil. This can be especially helpful in dry areas. • Any remaining soil can be placed in a mound on the downhill side of the seedling.This will help trap any rainwater and divert it into the hole. • Water the seedling. Also remember that to give your seedling the best chance of survival you should plant the 3m - 4m apart. If you plant them closer together then the seedlings will not get all the water and soil nutrients they need because there is much competition.They will become weak and may die, so follow the best practice of a spacing of 2.5 - 3m. The Importance of Trees Trees are very important for environmental and material reasons: A. Environmental improvement: • Trees cover soil, which protects it from wind and water erosion. • Leaves and twigs fall to the ground and provide the soil with extra nutrients. • Trees increase soil moisture by covering the soil and hence reducing evaporation. • Tree roots help bind the soil and therefore reduce erosion. • Tree roots also help water to enter the soil and hence improve underground water circulation. • Trees improve local weather conditions by increasing the amount of water vapor in the air (increased humidity). • Trees improve air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. • Trees provide shade and shelter. B. Material and nutritional value: • Construction materials (furniture, posts, fences, rope etc.) • Fuel wood • Medicine • Food/fodder These benefits are really valuable for farmers and for the world. A recent survey of TIST farmers in Kenya showed that the value of fruits, nuts, fodder, and firewood from trees they have planted in TIST and improved yield from using Conservation Farming averaged almost 37,000 shillings per farmer. It’s harder to put a value on the benefits of cooler, moister soil, cleaner air and some of the other benefits of the work we do in TIST, but we feel it on our farms every day. Promoting tree planting is hence of great importance to the community. Imagine what we can do when we plant more together! The Rains Have Come – Time to Plant Many More Trees. ENGLISH VERSION 4 D uring wet seasons, malaria infections become common. Mosquitoes, which are responsible for the spread of malaria pathogens, breed fast. It is important to look after your homes to reduce the presence of mosquitoes. These steps can help: • Clear your compound of any unwanted bushes or grasses. • Drain away any stagnant water near your compound. Stagnant water provides breeding ground for mosquitoes • Clear away any leftover food over-night. • Keep rubbish outside the house in a covered container or rubbish pit. • Sweep your house and compound daily. Remember to use mosquito nets when possible. T his article discusses the benefits of a well organized and strong cluster. It begins by sharing what a strong Cluster should look like. A strong cluster: • Has 30 to 50 active Small Groups (300-400 farmers) • Practices rotating leadership and servant leadership • Meets regularly every month, and meeting is well attended by Small Groups’ representatives. • Has land to plant at least 200,000 trees, and has Small Groups actively planting and caring for their trees. To date, each Cluster should have more than 100,000 trees. • Should have one or more members who assist Cluster Servant actively to monitor each Small Group’s results. • Should have active Cluster Servant who share good, accurate, useful information at cluster meetings and on shambas.
Additionally, a strong cluster should ensure: ü Small Groups are well quantified in a transparent, accurate. ü Small Groups receive their trees payments transparently quarterly. ü Each of the Small Groups meets weekly and practices rotational and servant leadership ü Each of the Small Groups receives Mazingira Bora newsletter every month. ü Small Groups receive training and they are voluntarily practicing, sharing best practices such as Conservation Farming, energy efficient jikos, soil erosion control measures, among others. Advantages of being a cluster. When a Small Group is in a Cluster, they have many benefits: ü It is easy to come for regular Cluster Meetings ü It is safe and convenient to get paid ü You can schedule quantification ü It is easy to learn Best Practices like Conservation Farming Controlling Mosquitoes. A Strong Cluster: Towards Success. ENGLISH VERSION 5 ü It is convenient to get the Mazingira Bora each month ü It is easy to participate in new TIST opportunities like improved stove jikos. Based on the discussions at TIST Seminars over the last years, it has been determined that each Cluster should have the ability to become self sustaining.The Cluster should have enough trees ( to date 100,000 + trees, the goal is 200,000+ trees) so that they can be bring profit to their members sooner. Cluster Leadership: How it Works. Clusters throughout Kenya have been holding elections for cluster representatives. Each cluster has a team of three volunteer servant leaders elected from Small Group members: a leader, co- leader and an accountability person. These representatives help the cluster to grow, improve, and succeed. The Cluster leadership is rotational.The first three will serve their term and then the leader will step out.The co-leader will become the leader. The accountability person will become the co-leader. A new accountability person will be elected by the Cluster from Small Group members and trained by the new co-leader to take this opportunity. The cluster leader may stand for election as the accountability person after ‘sitting out’ for one 4 month period. The new accountability person should be elected from Small Group members in the cluster. They should be a Small Group member, accountability, and willing to rotate into co-leader and leader roles. Roles of a leader
1. Should be a servant to the whole cluster and exemplify TIST Values. 2. Leads/facilitates cluster activities: coordinates cluster meeting, quantification and training schedules with other Cluster Servants 3. Helps bring and send important information to TIST Leadership Council. 4. Motivates Groups to achieve big results, including planting trees and practicing CF. Roles of a co-leader 1. Takes over when the leader is not there. A co-leader is to serve both the cluster members and the cluster leader 2. Helps the leader to consolidate the ideas in the cluster members Roles of the accountability person 1. Keeps an account of the meetings and the expenses. 2. Keeps the cluster records and reports on cluster meetings using the Palm (borrow from Cluster Servant) 3. Needs to know how to use the Palm so that he can be able to enter the cluster expenses and budget and access information about the Cluster. ENGLISH VERSION 6 W orking together in TIST, we have accomplished great things. Today, there are more than 7.4 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. We have been voted the Best Offsetting Project in 2014 by Environmental Finance Inc. When we work together and follow TIST Values, we have great success. We have yet another Validation and Verification audit coming soon.
We are need to carefully following TIST values that are so important for success. In the past, we have experienced a few cases of inaccurate tree counts and other problems that can really hurt TIST. We have seen some groups being n 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 are mutually accountable, and Small Groups are playing a very important role in making sure that the data we have are correct.They should remind the Cluster Servants to give a copy of Small Group Quantification Summary and carefully study it and ascertain the trees counted are accurate. Again, they should assist Cluster Servants by showing their trees in the farm. Clusters should report to Cluster Servants or Leadership Council if any farmers who violates Carbon Credit agreement by clear cutting. They should continue to remind and encourage members on the need to abide by GhG agreement and TIST Values. We all have a responsibility! Togethet we can do 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 Cluster Servant 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 We are Accurate, Honest, and Mutually Accountable: Small Groups play key role in correcting TIST data.

KISWAHILI VERSION 2 M wezi uliopita, tuliripoti ya kwamba tulikuwa na ziana yenye kufanikiwa na wanafunzi kutoka chuo cha New England College. Tulishiriki nanyi cluster na vikundi vidogo vilivyotembelewa. Mwezi huu, tuna furaha kutangaza ya kwamba wanafunzi hao wa NEC walipatwa na hisia kubwa kuhusu TIST hadi waliamua kuitafutia soko na kukuza TIST katika chuo chao na ata nje. Wanafunzi hao wa
NEC wamelenga kukabiliana na kaboni inayoletwa na idadi ya wanafunzi wanaosoma ili kupata shahada ya kwanza, lengo la tani elfu sita mia nane. Wanafunzi hao wamependekeza kufanya hivi kwa kuanzisha mradi wa majaliwa ya chuo ya kikaboni kwa kupanda miti ya TIST. Mwezi wane, tarehe ishirini na mbili, walianza uzinduzi wa umma wa kampeni hii kwa njia kadhaa za kupata pesa. Njia hizi zilikuwa pamoja na: 1) Mchezo wa kuuza tiketi za bahati nasibu ili kupata tuzo mbali mbali. 2) Tuzo kwa mwanafunzi atakayepanda miti zaidi akiwa amejitolea. 3) Tukio ambapo profesa wa somo la uchumi aliitikia kubandikwa na wanafunzi kwa ukutawanafunzi wanauza tepu hiyo kwa futi katika tukio hili. 4) Na tukio lililo kubwa kabisa- darasa hilo limepanga kutoa kahawa kila mahali katika chuo ili kuonyesha athari za kubadilika kwa tabia nchi. Darasa hilo linapotoa kahawa kutoka kwa duka na mkahawa, limepanga pia kutengeneza na kuuza kahawa pahali pamoja katika chuo hicho, ambapo pesa zitakazopatikana zitaelekezwa katika kupanda miti. Mamia ya vikombe vya kahawa hununuliwa katika chuo cha NEC kila siku, kwa hivyo jambo hili litavuta chuo chote. Matukio haya yamelenga kujulisha wengi na kujenga kasi ya kukuza mradi huu kwa wanafunzi, watawala katika shule na bodi ya wadhamini. Matarajio ni kuwa tutapanua lengo la kutoa kaboni iliyoingizwa katika hewa na idadi ya wanafunzi wanaosoma ili kupata shaha da ya kwanza hadi ya chuo chote. Hivi sasa, wanafunzi wawili waliokuwa katika ziara hii, Stephanie Goulet na Jodi Adams, wanafanya kazi ya kwanza kwanza ili kufikia lengo hilo kubwa. Pamoja na kazi yetu iliyoelekezwa katika chuo cha NEC pia tumeanzisha uzinduzi wa umma ambao tunatarajia utavuta kipaumbele kwa mkakati wetu na huonoze vyuo vingine kuiga mfano huu . tutaendelea kukujulisha jinsi tunavyojenga uhusiano na vyuo na vyuo vikuu vingine. Chuo cha New England and College wameanza kutafutia TIST soko katika nchi ya USA na kwingineko. KISWAHILI VERSION 3 Kutayarisha miche ili kuihamisha (Kuitayarisha kuishi katika hali ngumu) Sasa kwa kuwa mvua imefika, miche inahitaji kupandwa. Ni muhimu mwezi huu kuhakikisha kuwa miche iko tayari kuhamishwa kutoka kitaluni na kupandwa shambani. Miche kwanza inahitaji kutayarisawha kwa hali ngumu iliyo shambani. Kama miche imekuwa ikichungwa vyema kitaluni, inaweza kuwa ikipata maji zaidi ya ambayo itapata ikishapandwa shambani. Kidogo kidogo, ipunguzie maji unayoipa na uifungulie jua lote kuhakikisha itaweza kuhimili uhamisho huu inavyofaa. Sifa za miche mizuri Kama mwelekezo wa kijumla (ukikumbuka namna mbalimbali huwa na sifa mbalimbali) miche mizuri ya kupanda huwa na sifa zifuatazo:
• Shina linapotokeza lafaa liwe na urefu wa mizizi au mfuko mara mbili. • Shina lafaa kuwa lenye nguvu na gumu. • Miche inapaswa kuwa na mizizi myembamba mingi pamoja na mizizi mikubwa. • Miche mingi itakuwa na sifa hizi baada ya miezi miwili ikishaota. Kuhamisha • Beba miche ikiwa imesimama inavyofaa • Pima duara lenye upana wa sentimeta thelathini shambani • Toa mchanga wa juu na huuweke kwa pango • Toa safu la pili la mchanga hadi sentimeta thelathini na uweke kwa pango lingine. • Safu la nyasi sentimeta tano ( nyasi kavu msimu wa mvua, nyasi mbichi msimu wa ukavu). Vikundi vingine huongeza mbolea pia. • Toa mche mfukoni. Usivunje mchanga uliozunguka mizizi. • Weka mche shimoni • Rudisha mchanga wa juu kwanza, halafu safu la pili la mchanga. • Vikundi vingine havijazi shimo hadi pomoni, ilhali huacha pengo lasentimeta chache. Hili husaidia kuingiza maji ya mvua shimoni na mchangani. Hili sana sana husaidia maeneo makavu. • Mchanga ambao hubaki unaweza kuwekwa kwa pango kwa upande wa chini wa mche. Tendo hili husaidiakushika maji yoyote ya mvua na kuyarudisha shimoni. • Chotea mche maji. Kumbuka pia kuwa ili kuupa mche wako nafasi nzuri ya kuishi inafaa huipande ikitengana meta tatu kwenda nne . Ukiipanda karibu kuliko hivyo, miche yako haitapata maji na madini ya mchanga yote inayoitaji kwa sababu ya ushindani mwingi. Itakosa nguvu na yaweza kufa, kwa hivyo fuata mwenendo mwema zaidi wa kutenganisha kwa meta mbili na nusu kwenda tatu. Umuhimi wa miti Miti ni muhimu sana kwa sababu za kimazingira na kibidhaa:
A. Kuboresha mazingira: § Miti hufunika mchanga, tendo ambalo hulinda mchanga kutokana na mmomonyoko unaosababishwa na upepo na maji. § Majani na matawi huanguka ardhini na kuoongeza madini mchangani. § Miti huongeza unyevu mchangani kwa kuufunika mchanga na kupunguza evaporation. § Mizizi ya miti husaidia kuushika mchanga na hivyo basi kupunguza mmomonyoko. § Mizizi husaidia maji kuingia mchangani na hivyo basi kuboresha mzunguko wa maji yaliyo chini ya ardhi. § Miti huboresha hali ya anga ya ilipopandwa kwa kuongeza unyevu hewani ( kuoneza ubaridi) § Miti huboresha uzuri wa hewa kwa kunyonya hewa chafu n na kupumua hewa safi. § Miti hutupa kivuli na pa kujifunika. B. Thamani ya kibidhaa na kilishe: § Bidhaa za kujenga ( vyombo vya kutumia ndani ya nyuma, gogo, kamba na kadhalika) § Kuni au makaa § Dawa § Lishe ya watu na ng’ombe Faida hizi ni zenye thamani sana kwa mkulima na kwa dunia yote. Utafiti wa hivi juzi wa wakulima wa TIST katika Kenya ulionyesha kuwa thamani ya matunda, lishe ya ng’ombe na kuni kutoka kwa miti waliyopanda wakiwa TIST na mavuno bora kutokana na Ukulima Bora ilifika elfu thelathini na saba kwa kila mkulima. Ni ngumu kupima thamani ya faida za mchanga baridi na wenye unyevu zaidi na faida zingine za kazi tunayofanya katika TIST, lakini tunaiona thamani hii mashambani mwetu kila siku. Kupendakeza upandaji wa miti hivyo basi, ni muhimu sana kwa jamaa. Fikiria ambayo twaweza kufanya kukipanda zaidi tukiwa pamoja! Mvua imefika - Wakati wa kupanda miti mingine mingi. KISWAHILI VERSION 4 K atika majira ya mvua, maambukizi ya ma laria huwa kawaida. Mbu, ambao hueneza vimelea vya ugonjwa huu, huzaliana kwa haraka. Ni muhimu kutunza nyumba zenu ili kupunguza uwepo wa mbu. Hizi hatua zaweza kusaidia: • Wazisha kiwanja chako kutokana na vichaka na nyasi zozote zisizohitajika • Toa maji yoyote yaliyotuama karibu na kiwanja chako. Maji yaliyotuama huwapa mbu pahali pa kuzaliana • Tupa chakula chochote kilichoashwa usiku mzima •
Weka taka nje ya nyumba katika chombo kilichofunikwa au katika shimo la taka • Fagia nyumba na kiwanja chako kila siku .Kumbuka kutumia vyandarua vya mbu kila iwezekanapo M akala haya yanajadili faida za cluster yenye utaratibu na nguvu. Inaanza kwa kushiriki jinsi cluster yenye nguvu yafaa kuwa Cluster yenye nguvu: • Ina vikundi vidogo vyenye utendakazi thelathini kufika hamsini (wakulima mia tatu kufika mia tano) • Hutumia uongozi wa mzunguko na wa kutumikiana • Hukutana kila mwezi na mkutano huhudhuriwa na wawakilishi tosha wa kila kikundi kidogo • Ina ardhi ya kupanda zaidi ya miti elfu mia mbili, na inavikundi vidogo ambao wanapanda miti na kuitunza. Kufikia sasa, kila cluster yafaa kuwa na zaidi ya miti elfu mia moja • Yafaa kuwa na mjumbe mmoja au wawili wanaomsaidia mtumishi wa cluster kwa kikamilifu kufuatilia matokeo ya kila kikundi • Yafaa kuwa na mtumishi ambaye hushiriki taarifa nzuri, sahihi na inayosaidia katika mikutano ya cluster na pia mashambani Zaidi ya hayo, cluster yenye nguvu yafaa kuhakikisha: ü Vikundi vidogo vinahesabiwa miti vizuri na kwa njia ya uwazi na sahihi ü Vikundi vidogo vinapokea malipo kwa njia yenye uwazi kila miezi mitatu ya mwaka ü Kila kikundi kidogo hukutana kila wiki na hutumia uongozi wa mzunguko na wa utumishi ü Kila kikundi kidogo hupata gazeti la Mazingira Bora kila mwezi. ü Vikundi vidogo hupokea mafunzo na hutumia mafunzo hayo kwa hiari yao wenyewe, kubadilishana mbinu bora kama vile kilimo hai, meko yenye ufanisi katika utumizi wa nishati, hatua za kudhibiti mmomonyoko wa udongo, miongoni mwa mambo mengine. Manufaa ya kuwa cluster Kikundi kidogo kinapokuwa katika cluster, kina faida nyingi: ü Ni rahisi kuja katika mikutano ya cluster mara kwa mara ü Nisalama na rahisi kupata malipo ü Unaweza kufanya ratiba ya uhesabu miti Kudhibiti mbu. Cluster yenye nguvu: kuelekea mafanikio. KISWAHILI VERSION 5 ü Ni rahisi kujifunza mbinu bora za kufanya mambo kama kilimo bora ü Ni rahisi kupata gazeti la Mazingira Bora kila mwezi ü Ni rahisi kushiriki katika nafasi mpya katika TIST kama meko bora Kulingana na majadiliano katika semina za TIST katika kipindi cha miaka iliyopita, imeamuliwa kwamba kila cluster yafaa kuwa na uwezo wa kujitegemea kiendelevu. Cluster yafaa kuwa na miti tosha (kufikia leao miti elfu mia moja na zaidi, lengo likiwa miti elfu mia mbili na zaidi) ili ilete faida kwa memba mapema zaidi Uongozi katika cluster: Jinsi unavyofanya kazi. Cluster zote Kenya wamekuwa wakifanya uchaguzi ili kupata wawakilishi. Kila cluster ina timu ya viongozi watatu watumishi wa kujitolea wanaochaguliwa kutokana na memba wa vikundi vidogo: kiongozi, msaidizi wa kiongozi na mwajibikaji.
Wawakilishi hawa husaidia cluster kukua, kuboreka na kufanikiwa. Uongozi wa cluster ni wa mzunguko. Viongozi wa kwanza watatumikia muda wao na ndipo kiongozi atatoka uongozini. Msaidizi wa kiongozi atakuwa kiongozi. Mwajibikaji atakuwa msaidizi wa kiongozi. Mwajibikaji mpya atachaguliwa na cluster kutokana na memba wa vikundi vidogo na apate mafunzo kutokana na msaidizi wa kiongozi mpya ili aweze kuchukua nafasi hii. Kiongozi wa cluster aweza kusimama kuchaguliwa kama mwajibikaji akisha kaa nje ya uongozi kwa muda ya miezi mine. Mwajibikaji mpya anafaa kuchaguliwa kutokana na memba wa vikundi vidogo katika cluster hiyo. Anafaa kuwa memba wa kikundi kidogo, mwajibikaji na aliye tayari kuzunguka uongozini kuwa msaidizi wa kiongozi na kiongozi. Majukumu ya kiongozi 1. Awe mtumishi wa cluster yote na azingatie maadili ya TIST 2. Huongoza/huwezesha shughuli za cluster: kuratibu mikutano ya cluster, uhesabu miti na ratiba za mafunzo pamoja na watumishi wengine katika cluster 3. Husaidia kuleta na kutuma taarifa muhimu kwa chama cha uongozi wa TIST 4. Hutia vikundi motisha ya kufikia matokeo makubwa, ikiwa ni pamoja na kupanda miti na kulima kwa njia ya kilimo hai Majukumu ya msaidizi wa kiongozi
1. Huchukua mahala pa kiongozi asipokuweko. Jukumu lake ni kutumikia memba wa cluster pamoja na kiongozi wa cluster. 2. Husaidia kiongozi kuimarisha mawazo kutoka kwa memba wa cluster Majukumu ya mwajibikaji wa cluster 1. Huweka kumbu kumbu za mikutano na matumizi ya pesa. 2. Huweka rekodi na ripoti kuhusu mikutano ya cluster kwa kutumia Palm ( Aombe kutoka kwa mtumishi wa cluster) 3. Anahitaji kujua kutumia Palm ili aweze kuingiza gharama na bajeti za cluster na kupata habari kuhusu cluster. KISWAHILI VERSION 6 K wa kufanya kazi ya pamoja katika TIST, tumetimiza mambo makubwa. Leo, kuna zaidi ya miti milioni saba nukta nne inayokua kwa sababu ya kazi yetu. Tumehitimu na kusherehekea kuwa wa kwanza kuthibitishwa katika ukaguzi chiniya viwango vya the Verified Carbon Market and Climate and Community Standards, na kuhitimisha wakulima wengi katika TIST kujiunga na soko la kimataifa la kaboni. Tumepigiwa kura na kuwa mradi bora zaidi wa kutoa kaboni kutoka hewabi katia mwaka wa 2014 na kampuni ya Environmental Finance Inc. tunapofanya kazi pamoja na kuzingatia maadili ya TIST, tunapata mafanikio makubwa. Tuna ukaguzi na uthibitishaji unaokuja hivi karibuni. Tunahitaji kuzingatia maadili ya TIST ili tuwezane. Hapo nyuma, tumepata kesi chache za kutokuwa sahihi katika uhesabu wa miti na shida nyinginezo ambazozaweza kuumiza TIST. Tumeona vikundi vikilipiwa miti ambayo hawajapanda. Tunapokuwa na shida kama hizi, hili laweza kuumiza wakulima katika TIST kwa sababu ikiwa data si sahihi, hatuwezi husika katika soko la kaboni. Wanunuzi wanataka kununua kutoka kwa watu wanaoamini na ambao wanajua wanaongea ukweli. Tunawajibika kati yetu wenyewa na vikundi vidogo vina jukumu muhimu katika kuhakikisha kuwa data tuliyonayo ni sahihi. Wanafa kukumbusha watumishi katika cluster kuwapa nakala ya miti iliyohesabiwa na waiangali kwa uangalifu ili kuhakikisha kuwa iliyohesabiwa ni sahihi. Pia, wanafaa kusaidia watumishi wa cluster kwa kuwaonyesha ilipo miti kwatika mashamba yao. Cluster yafaa kuripoti kwa watumishi wa cluster au viongozi katika chama cha uongozi kuhusu mkulima yeyote anayekiuka makubaliano ya kadi za kaboni kwa kuikata miti yote. Wanafaa kuendelea kuwakumbusha na kuwatia motisha memba kuhusu haja ya kufuatilia makubaliano yaliyo katika kandarasi ya GhG na maadili ya
TIST. Sote tuna wajibu! Togethet Pamoja twaweza kufanya mambo ya kuajabisha. Naweza fanya nini ili nisaidie TIST kufanikiwa? - Hudhuria na hushiriki kikamilifu katika mikutano ya vikundi vidogo nay a cluster - Jua hesabu katika mashamba yaliyohesabiwa katika kundi lako na uwajulisha viongozi katika cluster yako iwapo hesabu au taarifa yoyote nyingine haipo sahihi. - Panda miti zaidi na uiweke miti uliyopanda ikiwa inakua na ikiwa yenye afya. - Hakikisha kuwa mtu mmoja katika cluster yako anafanya kazi pamoja na mtumishi wa cluster anapohesabu miti. - Ambia majirani na marafiki wako kuhusu TIST na uwahimize watu wanaozingatia maadili ya TIST kujiunga na kazi yetu. - Jitolee kufuatilia maadili ya TIST wewe mwenyewe, katika kikundi chako na pia katika cluster yako. Maadili ya TIST; 1) Tu watu wenye ukweli 2) Tu watu wenye usahihi 3) Tu mifano ya kuigwa 4) Tu watumishi kati ya sisi wenyewe 5) Tu wa kujitolea 6) Tu wawajibikaji kati ya sisi wenyewe 7) Tu watumizi wa gharama nafuu, matokeo makubwa. Tu watu wenye usahihi, wa ukweli, na wanaowajibika kati ya sisi wenyewe: vikundi vidogo vina jukumu muhimu la kusahihisha data ya TIST. Published by TIST-Kenya.
