About this project

- We support school canteens and vegetable gardens at 161 primary schools. To supply the schools with locally grown staple foods, small farmers are assisted with high-quality seeds and training on improved farming techniques, storage, and marketing of their crops.
- We strengthen the capacity of 50 farmers' cooperatives with over 10,000 members to improve their market access.
- Through the construction of toilets and rainwater tanks at schools, along with training for students, teachers, and parents, we improve hygiene conditions. For girls, we provide materials for menstrual hygiene, such as pads and soap.
- We promote exchange between schools to spread successful vegetable growing techniques.
- To reduce firewood usage, we introduce energy-efficient stoves in the canteens and promote reforestation around the schools.
