Mark Sultan Gersava was a peace development worker from Mindanao, the Philippines, who decided to act on what he saw as a critical challenge: transforming his ordinary products to become environmentally friendly to help mitigate the effect of climate change while empowering his local community with sustainable and long-term livelihoods.
