What we're doing
Feeding school children and supporting smallholder farmers
We partner with smallholder farmers to increase yields and incomes through climate smart production practices, access to improved inputs, and links to more lucrative market opportunities. We promote improved health, sanitation, hygiene, and nutrition to ensure households enjoy diverse diets that are balanced and rich in micronutrients. Working closely with communities, we address challenges that affect food availability and access, including governance of local structures, conflict mitigation, disaster risk management, and better integration of vulnerable groups.
