The project aims to reduce climate-related poverty and hunger by using innovative climate-smart farming technologies that enhance communities’ resilience to climate shocks and generate sustainable livelihoods.
Through the project, 10 internally displaced women will receive a 7-day training on hydroponic farming. This training will be provided by internally displaced youth who previously received training of trainers from Hydroponics Africa. These women will then be supported by these trainers to manage two simplified 8M X 30M horizontal hydroponic farming systems for vegetable production established with the foundation’s funding. The two farms would produce enough vegetables to support the 10 women’s households (approximately 80 people), as well as approximately 100 households (approximately 700 people) from the community who would benefit from the availability of affordable vegetables.
