Environmental research

The project targets are twofold. Firstly, to provide training for local communities in the bioconversion of agricultural waste into compost. This ensures environmental protection and an improved climate, maximises the benefits from agricultural waste, and increases opportunity for work for the young in rural communities. The second branch of this program targets the facilitation of technology transfer to farmers, enabling sustainable agriculture development in the conversion of waste to organic fertilizers and soil conditioners. The project also promotes better water-management, inclusion of women in the development programs, and a general improvement in community living conditions.
