About Sheena Shah
Sheena, a nature enthusiast, passionate about ecosocial change and community development. Born and raised in Nairobi, Kenya, with Indian origins. She has been fortunate enough to have traveled around the World, engaging in culture, interactions and experiences.
Her journey along the permaculture path began in 2011, having been brought up in a developing Country, determined to find solutions, she quit her teaching job to devote her life to community development projects and enrolled in a PDC on an Island off the Eastern part of the Great African Lakes, Lake Victoria. She then proceeded to work for an Orphanage, where she assisted in establishing a school for vulnerable children and in implementing a holistic permaculture design with the main aim being a fully sustianable home and community engagement by enagaging the children in gardening workshops. These experiences completely changed her life by deepening all these valuable concepts to prepare and respond in these times of great transition.
She is now currently working with the Permaculture Research Institute of Kenya, building her permaculture experience through assisting in trainings and courses and is studying International Permaculture Design with Gaia University.
