A Rocha and NieuCommunities invite churches and community organizations to a weekend of hands-on workshops about caring for creation. Allen Goddard, Director of A Rocha South Africa, together with NieuCommunities South Africa and other local Christian community leaders will explore the Bible's call to care for creation and how this translates into conservation action for local churches and communities.

Besides an introduction to A Rocha's community conservation work worldwide, this workshop draws on participants' knowledge and their commitment to Pretoria's local environments, to workshop old and new ideas for small, effective community conservations projects.
