The project aims to advancing positive social, environmental and economic outcomes among local farmers.
We are deeply committed to bringing our community farmers--most of whom are women--back from the brink of starvation and social oblivion.
The Institute’s proprietary set of educational and community-building programs, distilled from decades of research and development in several countries, is adapted by our farmer partners to make every initiative relevant, dynamic and meaningful to all participants.
It takes a community to restore a forest and establish a renewable local farming industry. In addition to establishing and maintaining dynamic farm cooperatives, our Institute builds stronger local communities, and trains future leaders to carry on our vision for decades to come.
The natural paradise of the Congo Basin (an area the size of Alaska) has long been under siege by commercial interests. We are deeply committed to bringing its farmers--most of whom are women--back from the brink of starvation and social oblivion.
