Programs
The pathway to living income
We work with local farming families, their communities, and relevant partners to build sustainable farming businesses and food value chains that strengthen rural economies and put people on the pathway to living income.
Integrated approach
Our programs are known for the integrated approach of income improvement, food security and climate change adaptation. When these components are strengthened with women’s empowerment, better opportunities for youth and group collaboration, we create strong and resilient communities that have the power to end hunger and overcome poverty.
