Feet in the Field - Lakarim Lanika

Feet in the Field - Lakarim Lanika

He once dreamed of becoming an engineer and living in a bustling city, but life led him down a different path. Meet Lakarim, part of our team in the Sabah Landscape in #Malaysia. Working closely with smallholder farmers in the place he calls home, Lakarim has found a deeper sense of purpose. With his feet firmly in the field and inspired by his parents’ history as farmers, he now works side by side with communities to create meaningful change. By supporting farmers in developing alternative livelihoods, this initiative helps reduce pressure on the landscape while contributing to a future where people and nature can thrive together. His dedication and strong connection to the community have also strengthened the spirit and resilience of Earthworm’s team in Sabah. About Earthworm Foundation's Sabah Landscape: Positioned at the intersection of supply chains and production regions, Earthworm’s landscape-scale collective actions serve as hubs for scalable regeneration and solutions to sustainability challenges. Our Sabah Landscape is financially supported by Nestlé, Reckitt, ADM Cares, Clariant, Colgate-Palmolive, Givaudan, Groupe Rocher, and IOI Group. The programme benefits from the engagement of communities, local government, and other local stakeholders.
