What we do

Dream Village: Teeming with Life!
Nestled in Ghana’s Oti Region, Dream Village is a 150-acre ecovillage dedicated to regenerative living, environmental stewardship, and social empowerment. Founded by Clement Matorwmasen in 2007 as a vision for a safe space where underprivileged individuals could thrive, it has grown into a vibrant community harmonizing people, nature, and purpose.
Our principles are deeply rooted in regenerative agriculture, inclusivity, and education. By fostering self-reliance, creativity, and collaboration, we aim to inspire lifestyles that prioritize the well-being of the planet and all its inhabitants.
The ecovillage features a thriving syntropic farm cultivating diverse crops, including local vegetables, bananas, coffee, baobab, sheanuts, and cashew, alongside native forest trees. Sustainable infrastructure includes Nubian vault classrooms and eco-friendly visitor huts. Dream Village engages 15-30 local children in programs blending agricultural training, computer skills, and creative exploration.
Visitors can enjoy tailored eco-experiences, such as:

  • Island tours on the Oti River
  • Canoeing, birdwatching, hiking, and fishing
  • Market visits and excursions to Kyabobo and Digya National Parks
  • Indigenous culture and language exchanges
  • Fireside storytelling sessions

Dream Village aspires to be a hub for agritourism and regenerative agriculture training. By developing organic farming, eco-lodging, and value-added products like Moringa tea and essential oils, we empower local communities and promote global food security and environmental restoration.
Together, we turn dreams into action, building a sustainable, regenerative future for all.
