Where we are working

Gender and Nutrition Centred Agriculture (GANCA) | 2021 - 2024

With a focus on gender relations, this project is engaging both male and female farmers within households, with the aim of improving family relationships and sharing work more equally. Families are growing more food, and a wider range of nutritious food, with training in diversified agricultural production, improved food storage and conservation. Young people are being engaged with encouragement to set up their own micro agribusinesses.

Food & Income Security for Communities affected by Climate Change | 2021 - 2023

Growing nutritious food all year round and developing resilience to financial and climate shocks. Communities are establishing successful agribusinesses, whilst ensuring equitable access to resources and rejuvenating their land for generations to come.
