During our partnership, we worked with farmers to increase crop diversity and produce natural fertilizers and pesticides. We supported the planting of trees and construction of land ridges and ditches to improve soil quality and reduce erosion. Additionally, we worked with local partners to construct micro-dams to harvest rainwater and enable crop production during dry seasons. Participants shared their knowledge and promoted sustainable practices with their neighbors. The program also supported women to plant kitchen gardens which helped diversify household diets.

To help families and communities severely hit by the worsening effects of climate change across the Central America region, together with our partner we conducted emergency food relief distributions.
