The women of the village of Dakhar Mbaaye have joined forces to form the economic interest group (GIE) Bokh Khalat in order to better organize the cultivation and sale of fruits and vegetables. In recent years both mango and papaya plants have been planted and are now coming into fruition. In order to make the mangoes last longer, the women need a way to preserve them. By installing a tunnel dryer, you can let the sun dry the fruits and thus preserve them. The dried fruits can be sold on both the Senegalese and European markets and help women earn an income and enable their children to go to school.
*** Description by project sponsor ***
Improving the livelihood of youth dropping out of primary and secondary school in Rugombo and Mugina Municipality of Cibitoke Province through the introduction of AGRs, vocational training products. This training will be combined with financial literacy building and behavioral change awareness to enable them to engage in significant activities of socio-economic value and create jobs to increase their resilience. These vocational training courses will last six months and will include carpentry, tailoring and other activities (e.g. ICT).
The aim of the project is to promote generative activities based on the Sustainable Development Goals “Sustainable Entrepreneurship”. Specifically, it is about training and supporting young rural women who benefit from the Zero Plastic Program, in order to teach them sustainability and social responsibility in the project idea, from starting a small, income-generating activity to starting a business . In order to empower the young rural women who were accompanied by our organization under the Zero Plastic Project funded by the SEZ, we will train them in sustainable entrepreneurship and social responsibility to make them believe in sustainability to think about their activities.
The main aim of our project is to contribute to the nutritional status of the children educated in the ASB community after-school care centers. The ASB operates municipal daycare centers in the above-mentioned provinces, where children from poor and vulnerable families are cared for. Thanks to the efforts of the Boy Scouts, these children eat at school, but sometimes their diet is not balanced, which leads to diseases such as malnutrition. To achieve this, the project will strengthen the skills of childcare center managers in the areas of food security, nutrition and advocacy, establish nine community vegetable gardens and hold a competition to support five good initiatives in the areas of food security, nutrition and advocacy.
This project distributes high-efficiency stoves to needy families with children at La Espero kindergarten and the surrounding community made up of Rumonge returnees. The stoves have improved combustion, reducing air pollution in homes and its negative health effects. The stoves also require less firewood, which protects forests, makes the tedious work of collecting wood easier and reduces CO₂ emissions.
Many of the families use inefficient cooking systems. These traditional cooking systems consume a large amount of fuel and produce a lot of smoke, which can lead to harmful effects on the health of children and women.
The main objective is to care for 60 girls' mothers and women who have been victims of human trafficking in the Arabian Gulf countries and to provide them with activities that will enable them to become socially and economically self-sufficient. They are trained in tailoring (garments, sanitary napkins, clothing, etc.), entrepreneurship, savings and credit in order to create or maintain permanent employment. These girls and women have completed secondary school. It will be easy for you to learn the profession quickly using the preferred method of learning by doing. We want to look after these deported girls and women so that they do not get the idea of returning to human trafficking, and those who were on the way there should not try again.
Contribute to improving food security and reducing poverty among widowed women of Butihinda in Muyinga Province.
The main action of this project aims at the food security of the poorest households in Mpanda municipality in Bubanza province and is based on a close connection between agriculture (kitchen garden), fish farming (fish farming), rabbit farming (rabbit farming) and nutrition (consumption of these products in families) . This action will take into account the four pillars of food security: availability, access (easy and quick), quality of food (organic) and regularity. This project will support the households of these vulnerable women through the consumption and sale of products (chickens, rabbits, eggs and vegetable products) as an income-generating measure to meet other local needs.
The aim of the project is to create social peace through the restoration of positive cultural values, as certain values such as respect for life, humanity, abhorrence of evil, patriotism, etc. have helped the people of Burundi to live in harmony, but have lost their meaning due to cultural developments throughout history and the conflict situations that Burundi has experienced for over 20 years. The main victim of this decline in positive values is the youth, caught between despair about the future and the attempt to be led down paths with uncertain outcomes. Most of them are capable of embarking on dubious paths at any cost.
